Food under "Pressure"

Anyone ever tried a pressure cooker? My sister who had WLS a year ago swears by it. She says it makes her vegetables soft but keeps the nutrients and makes her meats tender and moist. I am a little nervous to use it. I would love to hear if anyone has tried it and some recipes.

I thought I would have to give up my pressure cooker due to the small quantities of food that we GB folks eat. All you have to do is scale down your recipe. I have found that you can use your pressure cooker by adding 1 cup of Water to the bottom of the cooker and inserting the metal basket that comes with the cooker. Place your food in a metal bowl and place it in the basket. Follow normal pressure cooker times for your recipe.

I love using my pressure cooker. I have a smaller, older one. Really want the larger, electric one that I can do a roast in!
