Did you know you can make a whole turkey in an Instant Pot? I just discovered it thanks to Ayngelina's Instant Pot Turkey recipe from Bacon Is Magic, and my world has been forever changed. In less than an hour, you can have a fully-cooked bird that isn't dry and didn't take you all day to make.

Nothing goes better with turkey than homemade apple sauce, and I'm loving this Quick and Easy Pressure Cooker Applesauce recipe courtesy of Mel's Kitchen Cafe. Even if you slice and peel the apples fresh, this recipe only takes 15 minutes of prep and 15 to cook. Your friends will totally be able to tell you went the extra mile for this one.

Most people eat some form of corn on turkey day, and keeping it on the cob is a great choice if you're trying to keep things relatively low-cal. Meatloaf and Melodrama's Instant Pot Corn On The Cob makes this side dish mega-easy to make, and it only takes 22 minutes from prep to finish.

A Friendsgiving celebration without mashed potatoes is just sad, though they can be pretty time consuming to make.

This Instant Pot Pumpkin Macaroni and Cheese recipe from Once A Month Meals combines delicious cheese with crisp nutmeg and cinnamon for a flavorful dish that will impress everyone.

Most Thanksgiving dinners feature sweet potato casserole, but I'm loving the idea of individual sweet potatoes for a Friendsgiving.

It takes just one hour to cook, and Jo calls for delicious paprika and tarragon that give the recipe an extra punch.

Dinner rolls are my personal fav always. This Instant Pot No Knead Dinner Rolls recipe from Julia at Imagelicious takes at least an hour to rise, but if you have an Instant Pot with yogurt function, you can mix, proof, and cook the bread all in your appliance. And if you don't have a pressure cooker, you can still pull off these fluffy rolls by baking them in your oven.

Instead of adding another batch of green bean casserole to your Friendsgiving table, another green vegetable to consider is the artichoke.
