Instant Pot Taco Pasta
This dish is a welcome change from boring taco Tuesday. I've taken all the flavors of tacos and created an easy pasta dish. Kids love the taste, and I love how quick and easy it is to put together in the electric pressure cooker. To lighten things up, use ground turkey instead of the beef.
Ingreadient:
- 1 pound lean ground beef (90% lean)
- 1 envelope taco seasoning
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce
- 8 ounces uncooked medium pasta shells
- 1-1/2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend
- Optional: Sour cream, cilantro, chopped tomatoes and black olives
Directions :
- Select saute setting on a 6-qt. electric pressure cooker and adjust for medium heat. Cook beef until no longer pink, 6-8 minutes, breaking it into crumbles; drain. Add taco seasoning; stir to combine. Add beef broth, tomato sauce and pasta. Press cancel.
- Lock lid; close pressure-release valve. Adjust to pressure cook on high for 5 minutes. Quick-release pressure. Stir; top with cheese. Let stand until cheese melts, about 1 minute. If desired, serve with toppings.
