The next cooking appliance I purchase will be one. With that, and a charcoal grill this Spring, I'll have it all covered:
InstaPot, charcoal grill, George Foreman, Presto electric skillet, microwave, and a rice cooker.
If you get one of those ninja foodies you can get rid of the electric skillet and the rice cooker. Mine is an air fryer, pressure cooker and I can use it like an electric skillet. It has a sous vide function, a yogurt function, supposedly you can bake and dehydrate stuff in it. I usually use it to steam veggies and maybe roast some meat when I take a 34.
No, I'll be keeping the skillet. Over Medium eggs in a Ninja?
As OTR drivers do you use this equipment? Can it be the only one to use on the road? Any recipes or good links to low carb, simple dishes, with ingridients which can fit in a truck? Thanks
Slow cookers can be a great option for OTR drivers who want to prepare meals on the road. They are portable, easy to use, and can cook a variety of dishes with minimal effort. However, they are not the only option and drivers may also use other cooking equipment such as portable stoves, microwaves, or electric skillets depending on their preferences and available space.
When it comes to low-carb, simple dishes that can be prepared in a truck, there are many options to choose from. Some popular ideas include:
Chili: made with ground beef or turkey, canned tomatoes, and low-carb vegetables like bell peppers, onions, and zucchini. Add chili powder and cumin for flavor.
Stews: made with meat, low-carb vegetables like carrots, celery, and mushrooms, and low-sugar broth or stock. Add herbs and spices for flavor.
Egg dishes: such as scrambled eggs, omelets, or frittatas. Add low-carb vegetables like spinach, mushrooms, and peppers, and top with cheese.
Meat dishes: such as roasted chicken or beef. Season with herbs and spices and serve with low-carb vegetables like green beans, broccoli, or cauliflower.
There are also many online resources for low-carb recipes that can be prepared in a truck, such as the website "Low-Carb Yum" or the cookbook "The Low-Carb Comfort Food Cookbook" by Mary Dan Eades.
Ultimately, the key to preparing meals on the road is to plan ahead, stock up on the right ingredients, and choose simple, easy-to-prepare dishes that fit your dietary needs and preferences.
OTR driving normally means you'll be hauling freight to various customers throughout your company's hauling region. It often entails being gone from home for two to three weeks at a time.
When a violation by either a driver or company is confirmed, an out-of-service order removes either the driver or the vehicle from the roadway until the violation is corrected.

I love my Instant Pot. I use it a lot at home and it will definitely go on the truck with me. I have a whole pinterest page of IP recipes, and another whole page of low carb recipes. I'd link, but not sure it's allowed. Just google low carb instant pot and you'll find plenty.
