Instant Pot Hamburger Macaroni and Cheese

1

Set Instant Pot to saute less for 5 minutes. Saute ground beef in Pot with some olive oil.

When the Instant Pot turns off the ground beef will still be slightly pink.

3

Add water to the Pot with the ground beef and scrape any brown bits off the bottom of the Pot.

4

Add penne noodles (I use the Tinkyada brand) and spread them out evenly on top of the ground beef. Do not stir.

5

Add some pasta sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper. DO NOT STIR.

6

Place lid on Instant Pot, turn steam release handle to sealing position and set Pot to Pressure Cook High for 2 minutes.

7

Once the Pot is done cooking, immediately turn the steam release handle to the venting position and do a quick release.

8

Remove the lid and stir the contents well.

9

Add some shredded cheese and stir again.

10

Allow cheese to melt before serving.

Serve.
