Description
Paleo practitioners want fresh, healthy, and tasty home-cooked meals like anyone else, but often find themselves spending too much time in the kitchen. That's where the power of the electric pressure cooker comes in! Pressure cookers lock in freshness, flavor, and nutrients and—above all—they get dinner on the table fast.
Paleo blogger and cookbook-writing veteran Natalie Perry is here to show you that you can get the same fix-and-forget convenience of slow cooking without the long hours of waiting with The Big Book of Paleo Pressure Cooking. This new book is the result of her prodigious research and testing on how to cook paleo and primal foods in electric pressure cookers.
The heart of the book lies in 50 exquisite, protein-rich main courses, including Green Chile Shredded Beef, Mango BBQ Pulled Pork, and Shredded Red Curry Chicken with Sweet Thai Slaw. Natalie also serves up more than two dozen comforting and flavorful soups and stews, appetizers, side dishes, sauces, plus a chapter exclusively focused on shortcut dinners and desserts!
The Big Book of Paleo Pressure Cooking goes beyond simply providing step-by-step instructions; Natalie provides guidance on properly preparing your paleo treasures and how to maximize your bounties in InstantPots and other electric pressure cookers. So what are you waiting for? Grab the coconut milk, almond meal, and cauliflower, flick on the pressure cooker, and get cooking!

This book was filled with recipes that seem too good to be part of a Paleo diet! I cannot wait to try them, as I have been looking for healthy recipes to try in my new Instant Pot.
I don't follow a Paleo diet but I do enjoy cooking and eating highly nutritious foods. This book has plenty of choice and great photos to entice you to get stuck in and cook them. My pressure cooker will be in constant use!
Many thanks to Netgalley for a copy of this ARC for which I have given my voluntary and unbiased review.
Great paleo take on a variety of recipes. I love how simple the recipes are; no complicated ingredients or weird extra steps in preparation. The recipes cross all ethnicities from Green Chile Beef to Egg Drop Soup to Marinara and Meatballs. I’m planning to whip up a batch of the Smokey Hot Mixed Nuts to give as Christmas gifts this month. This book is a great way to expand your pressure cooker repertoire while eating delicious food!
Imaginative pressure cooker recipes
"Paleo means free of grains (and gluten), dairy, legumes, and refined sugar".
Pressure cooking drastically reduces the cooking time and allows slow cook meat to be cooked to melting deliciousness quickly.
I'm not following a paleo diet nor do I have the electric pressure cooker* for which this book is geared. I am though an enthusiastic user of a stove top pressure cooker, and lean towards a low carb diet.
I viewed this book from the perspective of someone looking to increase their repertoire of pressure cooker dishes. This book certainly delivers. It also includes an introduction to electric pressure cooking and to the paleo diet and paleo substitute ingredients.
The range of recipes is broad and imaginative. I have earmarked a number to try e.g. French onion beef soup, charred red pepper soup with garlic shrimp, and the Chinese BBQ beef stew.
The book is well organised, and each chapter begins with a list of recipes. There are photographs of most, though not all, finished dishes.
As a US book it requires a little adaptation for UK use in terms of ingredients, though very usefully measures are also given in g and ml.
*My Fissler Vitaquick stove top operates at a higher pressure than an electric pressure cooker such as the InstantPot. I need to reduce recipe timings to roughly 4/5; 24 minutes rather than 30 for example.
I was given a digital review copy by the publisher via NetGalley.
Lovely cookbook for those following a paleo diet interested in pressure cooking recipes. The recipes are all relatively quick and easy and this book includes a variety of dishes and cuisines. Those of us who love to use our pressure cooker will want to grab a copy!
Thank you, Harvard Common Press and NetGalley!
The Big Book of Paleo Pressure Cooking is the first and only cookbook that I've reviewed so I'm going to do this review just like I do my romance reviews. I'm going to tell you what I liked, the stuff that worked for me.
I've been using my pressure cooker (I don't have an Insta-Pot) regularly for a little over a year now. I initially purchased it for cooking whole chickens for a sick furbabe. I always saved the stock that was made but the furry got the meat. The popularity of the Insta-Pot got me using the cooker for me. I enjoy the one pot dump meals. They're quick and easy.
Perry describes the pressure cooker as the child that came from the romantic hook up between the microwave and the slow cooker. The pressure cooker gives you the quick meals of the microwave with the tender juiciness of the slow cooker. I seriously love my pressure cooker. The first chapter of this book explains the various functionalities that many of the different cookers can offer. That makes this specific book great for the novice pressure cooker user. I even learned a few new things that makes me want a fancier model.
I did make one of the recipes from the book before I put this review together. I have intentions of preparing others. The Buffalo Ranch Chicken Chowder is on next weeks menu. I'm in Tennesse and it's cold and miserable this time of year. I'm on a soup kick. I made the Creamy Southwest Chicken Soup. I'm also eating a ton of chicken here lately. The instructions were clear and concise. Prep time was quick. The soup was ready to eat in no time. It was delicious! And the author claims that this was somewhat unintentional.
Complete with 150 easy-to-follow recipes, the author brilliantly created this cookbook that took the guesswork out of preparing delicious meals. On a personal note, I'll submit that there have been countless times that I'd either overcooked or undercooked a meal. Who hasn't? For greater success in the kitchen, this type of cooking appears to be the way to go.
The many recipes revolved around the paleo diet which consist mainly of vegetables, fruit and meat. Primarily, food in it's more natural state. There were countless tips and tricks and do's and don'ts that made for an enjoyable cooking experience. The savory pictures put the final lid on this cookbook with everything that anyone could possibly hope for from a pressure cooker. It certainly has my seal of approval for doling out perfect meals. Look no further; this is it.
I send my gratitude to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group - Harvard Common Press for this ARC in exchange for an unbiased review.
this was unique. I am not in any means paleo but this was presented in a different light. It wasn't filled with bizarre ingredients that normal pantries didn't have. It did explain the strange ingredients and what they brought to the palate. The pictures were done very well. I think this is a good starting point if paleo scares you!
Instant Pots are all the rave currently. I am a new owner and tried a couple of the recipes from this book. I loved them. They were easy (especially for a beginner in Instant pot) and delicious. The Illustrations are beautiful, the directions in the recipes are easy to follow and the food comes out great. This will be a book I will be using frequently in my kitchen.
Delicious, easy, and fresh recipes that my entire family enjoyed. It's not "diet" food, it's whole, delicious food that fits a lifestyle I strive to meet. The butter chicken is DELICOUS! Thanks to Net Galley for providing me with a copy of this book, it's one we are sure to cherish and use often.
This cookbook helps you create tasty and healthy meals without spending tons of time doing so. Yet, one element you might want to consider is several recipes do take a bit of prep work so in other words you don't get to just throw those things in a pressure cooker. Therefore, you might not save as much time as you think or want. Still it might be worth it for you.
The writer has done her work to provide 150 wonderful recipes.. You'll also find stews, beverages, desserts, soups, sauces and appetizers as well as side dishes. The cookbook is very well written with great steps on what you need to do for each recipe. Also, even if you don't have an electric pressure cooker, which I don't it I'm sure it will work fine with a stovetop pressure cooker, which I do have and LOVE!!
The photos are beautiful and the recipes are well organized as is the book in general with helpful details including about using the electric pressure cooker. Keep in mind if you aren't sure about the world of Paleo it is a diet that doesn't use grains, legumes or dairy. It is also free of refined sugar. Therefore, recipes will substitute items for these ingredients or perhaps not include what a recipes would usually. But, chances are you won't miss it. But, you don't need to practice these diet to enjoy these wonderful recipes and cookbook.
This is a great book for anyone who is a huge fan of their pressure cooker and living a Paleo lifestyle. The recipes are easy to follow, and even easier to prepare, just add to the pressure cooker and wait on the yummy goodness. I tried several of the recipes and I can speak from experience how delicious they are. With this book you will not have to spend all day cooking, and feel like you are eating the same old boring food. Highly recommend.
Thank you to the author, publisher, and Netgalley for allowing me to preview this book.
