Mouth Watering Pressure Cooker Spaghetti

You are welcome to use any type of spaghetti noodles you like, whether they are veggie, whole wheat, or the classic kind. Each brand and style have turned out great in this recipe.

You can also substitute the ground beef for ground turkey or even pork if you want.

It is totally about the preference of flavor of what you have on hand. We love hamburger in ours, but you are welcome to switch things up, it will still turn out to be one savory dish.

Lastly, as for spaghetti sauce, use whatever brand you like, or if you would prefer homemade Mom’s Sunday Sauce is a great recipe for the Instant Pot. I like to tell people to buy the sauce they prefer.

I know in our home we have two or three kinds and those are what we stick with. Every time I venture out I normally go back to wanting my old spaghetti sauce.

So pick out whatever brand you generally buy.

How do you cook spaghetti in the instant pot?

Simply turn your Instant Pot to saute and toss in your onions and garlic. Cook until you can begin to smell the aroma, and then toss in the ground beef, salt and basil and parsley.

Cook it until it is no longer pink.

Then you want to drain out any grease, if you buy lean you can skip this step, but this helps it from becoming too greasy with less lean meats. Next toss in your broth, tomatoes, and sauce and noodles.

Make sure your noodles are covered in liquid or they will not cook properly.

Then set your Instant Pot and let it cook away.

Perfectly easy to make and quick. Two things I love and the flavor of this spaghetti is absolutely delicious. I am a huge fan of making spaghetti in the pressure cooker, and will never look back at my old ways.

I hope you all enjoy this recipe if you give it a try!
