INSTANT POT TACO PASTA

I actually brown and cook the beef right in the Instant Pot on the sauté setting before adding the other ingredients and securing the lid for the final cook. 12-13 minutes later, quick release and reveal your perfectly cooked taco pasta!

INGREDIENTS

• 2 teaspoons minced garlic
• 1 onion, minced
• 1 lb ground beef
• 1-10oz can black beans, rinsed and drained
• 1-10oz can corn, rinsed and drained
• 1-16oz can chile-style tomatoes, with juice
• 1/2 cup tomato sauce
• 1/2 lb pasta, uncooked
• 2 cups water or broth
• 2 teaspoons taco seasoning
• Cheese, optional for serving
• Sour cream, optional for serving
• Get Ingredients Powered by Chicory

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Turn the IP on the saute setting and add the garlic, onions and ground beef.
2. Cook until the ground beef is fully browned, stirring constantly, and being thorough with breaking up any lumps of the beef sticking together.
3. Add in the black beans, corn, tomatoes, sauce, pasta, broth and seasoning. Stir to combine, making sure that you allow the liquid to get to the bottom of the Instant Pot.
4. Place the lid on the IP and turn off the saute setting.
5. Select the soup/stew setting for 10 minutes, then quick or natural release when it is done cooking.
6. Taste and adjust the seasoning, as needed.
7. Serve with a sprinkle of cheese and dollop of sour cream, as desired.
