Instant Pot Spaghetti Is the Perfect One Pot Meal to Satisfy Even Your Pickiest Eaters!

We love Instant Pot Ground Beef recipes! Some of our favorites include The Best Meatloaf Recipe for the Instant Pot and Instant Pot Stuffed Pepper Soup.

Instant Pot Spaghetti

Spaghetti is one of those recipes that works for just about any occasion. Are you rushing to get dinner on the table on a busy weeknight? Spaghetti to the rescue. Do you have family or friends coming over, or maybe a house full of hungry kids? Spaghetti is sure to satisfy.

As an added benefit, spaghetti is easy to make, too. The only drawback is all the dishes you have to dirty and wash! A pan to brown the meat in, a pot to cook the pasta, and another to warm the sauce…there has to be an easier way to do it.

Thankfully, there is! You can cook Instant Pot Spaghetti in one pot – really! – and have it on the table in no time.

DOES THIS INSTANT POT SPAGHETTI FREEZE WELL?

It definitely does! If you’re feeding a smaller bunch and want to freeze the leftovers, go right ahead. When you need a quick meal, just thaw and reheat, and you’re ready to go!

WILL THE NOODLES CLUMP TOGETHER?

If you place them in the Instant Pot all in one big bunch, yes, they can. If that happens, just separate the noodles gently with a fork and they should be fine! To avoid having them clump, be sure to layer them, crossed somewhat diagonally, before you cook them.

There’s no need to be exact with the layering, but it really does help. They will have a great texture and taste!

 

CAN I USE HOMEMADE SPAGHETTI SAUCE?

This Instant Pot Spaghetti recipe works well with your favorite jarred sauce, but if you have homemade on hand, feel free to use it! Just be sure to use the same quantity as called for in the recipe.

Sauce consistency can vary, so if you would like a thicker sauce, just cook it down for a few minutes on the Saute setting before serving. The sauce should thicken up beautifully!

I hope your family enjoys this recipe as much as ours does. I have a feeling it will go on your regular meal rotation!

Happenings From Our Family of 9

 

One interesting aspect of living in the country is the change in scenery as the crops mature from seeding through harvest.  We use the oil well access road right next to our property to walk, ride bikes and 4 wheelers on.  It is  very interesting seeing the beans, wheat and corn grow at different stages throughout the year.  Below is the road we use and corn on each side drying out for harvest.

    Thank you so much! As a special needs mommy these recipes have helped us so much.   I often am very busy with being a nurse for our child that I don't have time for making sure we get meals.  This allows me to do all my prep on the weekends, while my husband is home to help, and to cook during the week.  So grateful!

    Sarah’s Freezer to Slow Cooker ebooks have been a fantastic addition to my meal plans.  They make meal planning easy and my family happy. I love the way each recipe is laid out, with a shopping list and ingredient prep list, along with cooking instructions. Sarah’s done all the hard work for me!  The recipes have used have all been delicious and easily adaptable to my family’s taste and the number of people I’m serving.

  • FranOwner of Freezer to Slow Cooker Ebooks
     I purchased all of your freezer to slow cooker ebooks a month or so ago and I'm in love with this way of cooking.  I now have taken all 10 weeks of recipes and written them of my menu planner and then I repeated the 10 weeks and will continue to do so throughout the year.  My family of 5 adults and 1 child enjoy the meals that you have planned and I have cooked and I'm excited that the next time when that meal comes due up in the rotation I won't have to purchase anything but just pull it from the freezer.  Thank you so much

    This makes my life so much easier. I'm a busy work at home/stay at home mom, wife, business woman and I feel like dinner is always the thing I just never get time to do. We have done like 15 of the crockpot recipes from Sarah and they are all very yummy. They get a thumbs up from my husband and kids every time. And there is always enough for my husband to take the left overs at least 2x per recipe. I have a family of 5, 2 adults, 21, 13, 16. So it makes plenty. Thank you Sarah.

    I am a 59-year-old wife and mother of two grown children.  I love your idea of fixing a lot of meals ahead of time and then pulling one out, put it in the crockpot, and you have dinner when you get home.  I hate feeling rushed when I cook so Monday - Friday I use those crockpot meals and make enough that we have lunch the next day.  I take Sunday afternoon, fix up what I need for the week (I don't have a lot of freezer space so I do a week's worth at a time) and I'm done with it!  Saturdays I like to try new recipes from some of my cookbooks which I am finding I can freeze as well!  So you have shown me a whole new way to organize my time and still put a healthy meal on the table.  Thanks so much and I look forward to future blogs.
