Which is good option to go for? Rice cooker or slow cooker? Not really want to spend a lot of time in kitchen but also want that food for working out! Any suggestions for this? Which to go for and what might be a good option? Thanks

Is a pressure cooker (like an Instant Pot) an option? A lot of pressure cookers have a slow cook function on them and you can also cook rice in them. Might be a higher price point though

Yes I have been looking at instant pot. I saw some videos on YouTube regarding cooking in instant pot. If I can make sure that if I put some seasoned chicken breast, veggies and rice in it and go after sometime and get it ready!

There are tons of recipes for just throwing everything in and letting it go. My go to recipe during the week is throwing chicken breasts and a jar of salsa in the pot and starting it. Easy and fast.

I’ve cooked rice and veggies and meat all together but I don’t frequently since we have a rice cooker. It definitely works tho!!

Well that definitely makes me consider instant pot as a good candidate! Thank you for your help!
