My daughters & I made the Shrimp Alfredo last night, so simple & quick, and the taste was delicious. I had to double the recipe & I only had heavy cream on hand very rich & creamy main course. Thank you for the recipe.

Made the cheesy hamburger noodle tonight, but I cooked the noodles for 7 minutes and they were perfect. I didn’t have any Cheddar cheese soup, so I used cream of chicken and added some velvetta, about a cup of cubes, then set IP for 7 minutes. Then after the slow release, set the IP on saute and added some sharp cheddar, it only took a minute to melt and thicken. Really good. We rated it a 10,and will be making it again.
