Instant Pot Beef & Cheesy Potatoes

The Instant Pot is just a crazy love for me. I love, love, LOVE how easy it is to throw everything in and have a delicious meal in no time at all. This recipe is no different!

Made with beef, potatoes and, of course, cheese, the combination couldn’t be any better! The ingredients for this won’t cost more than $10 or so if you have the spices on hand, and that makes it even better!

INSTANT POT BEEF & CHEESY POTATOES

Instant Pots never go out of style any time of year! Summertime is so busy and it’s hard to keep at it with delicious meals. Thankfully, the Instant Pot has us covered and this recipe is sure to be a hit!

The kids really love this one because, well, you can make it all ooey-gooey with cheese and how delicious is that?!

WHAT INSTANT POT DO YOU USE?

I like to use the 6 quart Instant Pot for most of my recipes, but if I need a little more room, I’ll use the 8 quart Instant Pot.  Either way, your food will be tasty.

When I’m using ground beef in my recipes, I really like to use my Easy Greasy Colander so that it will just catch any extra grease for me in the special bowl that fits right under it.  It’s pretty great!

WHAT TO SERVE WITH INSTANT POT BEEF AND CHEESY POTATOES RECIPE?

This recipe can almost be set by itself! The potatoes and beef give it a good balance, but here are a few things you could always add as a side dish:

• Salad
• Rolls
• Steamed Veggies
• Casserole (like a squash casserole)

HOW CAN I MAKE IT CREAMIER?

If you want, you can always add some heavy cream to make it a bit creamier. Adding sour cream as a garnish works, too! A cream of mushroom or celery soup would work too.

CAN I ADD SPICE?

Of course! A lot of people like to add spice. For this one, I would recommend adding spice as a garnish (in the form of hot sauce or something like that), or add in some diced jalapeños (or other pepper of choice) into the pot!
