Back to School! Whether your kids are heading back to the classroom or to the kitchen table for virtual learning, things are getting busier at home. With things picking up again, time for cooking dinner may be cut a little short. Have no fear! I have the EASIEST weeknight Spaghetti recipe for you.
I make this recipe in my Instant Pot and that’s it! No boiling water for noodles, no cutting board for chopping—seriously just my Instant Pot (IP) & a spoon! Or a ground meat masher- like this one.
Instant Pot Spaghetti
Ingredients:
1 lb ground meat of your choice, I used a lean ground beef
8oz dried spaghetti noodles, broken in half
8oz of pre chopped trinity (onion, bell pepper, celery). I prefer Guidry’s Creole Seasoning
1 Jar Marinara of your choice
1 can diced tomatoes
2-3 cloves of garlic, chopped or minced
1-2 tbsp dried Italian seasoning
Salt & Pepper to Taste
Directions:
Turn IP to saute. Once hot, add in ground meat and brown with salt and pepper (3-5 minutes).
Once meat is cooked: add in Trinity Mix, Garlic, and Italian Seasoning. Cook together for 3-5 minutes, stirring often.
Add in marinara & diced tomatoes. Fill empty tomato can with water and add it to the IP. Give your pot a big stir.
Add in noodles. Make sure they are covered by your meat/liquid mixture.
Place your top on and set it to 9 minutes high pressure. When timer goes off, quick release your IP.
Enjoy with Parmesan cheese and a side of veggies!
There you go! Easy Peasy and only 2 things to clean when finished! I have a video tutorial for this recipe saved to the Instant Pot 2 Highlight on my Instagram Page.
