Instant Pot Spaghetti

Spaghetti is always an easy go to meal for us and all the kids eat it well. I always have all the ingredients in my pantry and its great for nights you need to get an easy meal done relatively fast. I LOVE how the Instant Pot actually helps the meal get done even quicker and it is delicious!

When I got my Instant Pot, the spaghetti was the first thing I've made, and I've made a few other batches since. For dinner and to freeze for later!

So good!

Simple dinners are always a hit and with busy schedules. Between the kids in sports, homework, and the farm, sometimes simple dinners are wonderful!

So with the Instant Pot, the great thing is everything can be made in the insert pot! Brown the meat and the ingredients and it cooks for 8 minutes and dinner is ready!

And bonus....one pot, no colander or extra pans needed!

By time your garlic bread is done, your spaghetti will also be done!
