  1. Do you think this would work okay with boneless pork chops? I bought a few packages on manager’s special I’d love to use instead of buying more meat!

    1. We have not yet, but it looks like a perfect recipe for the Instant Pot! I think you will be excited to see some of our new Instant Pot offerings coming up in March!

    1. Hi Sue, that’s a great question. Just looking at the recipe on the website, this would make 1 6 serving size meal. To adjust the serving size and double the meals (put in 2 bags), just add it to your custom menu and adjust your serving size. Our system will do all the math for you!

  2. does everything go in one bag? or does the small bowl mixture go into a quart bag, porlk loin in a gallon and fruit/veggies into its own gallon?

    1. Hi Lisa! Thanks for catching that! The recipe instructions have been updated to clarify. The olive oil mixture goes in the quart bag, and the meat and veggies go into the gallon bag.

    1. Great question! You will want to drain the veggies before cooking, the added water is added to help prevent browning.

    1. Hi Tiffany, we estimate that one apple will yield 3/4 cups of diced apples and one butternut squash will yield 3.2 cups of chunks. The most important thing is to keep the apples and squash similar sizes so that they will both cook similarly for the same time.
