No matter where you go these days, everyone seems to be about pressure cooking. From one-pot meals to whole chickens and roasts, pressure cookers seem to have taken the world by storm. But what about low carb meals? Can the pressure cooker handle them too? Absolutely!
This week's recipe is for an American staple- steak tips. Here we take top sirloin steak and mushrooms and bathe it in a low carb gravy, all wrapped up with rosemary and garlic over a creamy cauliflower base. Comfort food to the max!
I was so inspired after making a few recipes in my Instant Pressure Cooker that I decided to whip up a whole series of recipes and put them into a Lean and Green Low Carb Pressure Cooker Cookbook. Want to check it out? Click Here. With so many recipes to cook, you'll be delighted and amazed.
