Instant Pot Spaghetti

This instant pot spaghetti is the perfect weeknight dinner recipe. Made in under 10 minutes with simple, yet wholesome ingredients like ground beef, creamy pasta sauce, and al dente pasta, the whole family will be reaching for seconds.
Since I cook gluten-free, this is a gluten-free version of instant pot pasta but you can make it with regular noodles as well. Top with parmesan cheese, olive oil, and fresh basil for an easy and delicious homemade meal.

Notes

Variations

  • Add vegetables - I recommend adding in diced zucchini, squash, bell peppers, mushrooms, or fresh spinach for added nutrients and flavors.
  • Type of pasta - While I prefer regular spaghetti or capellini noodles, you can easily use penne, rotini, angel hair, even fettuccine. 
  • Different meat - You can omit the meat all together or use Italian sausage, ground chicken, ground turkey, etc.

Storage

Storing - You can store this easy instant pot spaghetti recipe in the fridge an airtight container for 2-3 days. Make sure your pasta has cooled to room temperature before storing and reheat in the microwave or in the instant pot when you're ready to serve. 
Freezing - You can freeze this delicious recipe for up to 3
