Instant Pot Pasta Recipes Frozen Ground Beef Recipe
Ingredients:
* 1 lb frozen ground beef
* 1 onion, diced
* 2 cloves of garlic, minced
* 1 cup frozen peas and carrots
* 1 cup uncooked pasta (such as penne or rigatoni)
* 2 cups chicken broth
* 1 can (28 oz) crushed tomatoes
* 1 tsp dried oregano
* 1 tsp dried basil
* Salt and pepper, to taste
* Grated Parmesan cheese, for serving (optional)
* Olive oil, for serving (optional)
Instructions:
1. Press the "Saute" button on the Instant Pot and heat the pot until it reads "HOT".
2. Add the olive oil, onion, and garlic to the pot. Cook until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
3. Add the frozen ground beef to the pot, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks. Cook until the beef is browned, about 5 minutes.
4. Add the frozen peas and carrots, pasta, chicken broth, crushed tomatoes, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper to the pot. Stir to combine.
5. Close the lid of the Instant Pot and set the valve to "SEALING". Press the "Manual" or "Pressure Cook" button and set the cooking time to 8 minutes at high pressure.
6. When the cooking time is up, allow the pressure to release naturally for 5 minutes, then quick-release any remaining pressure.
7. Open the lid and check that the pasta is cooked to your liking. If it's not, close the lid and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
8. Serve the pasta hot, topped with grated Parmesan cheese and a drizzle of olive oil if desired.
Cook Time: 8 minutes

Variations:
* Add diced bell peppers or mushrooms to the pot for extra flavor and nutrients.

* Add some heat with red pepper flakes or diced jalapenos.
* Substitute different types of pasta, such as spaghetti or rotini, for a change of pace.
* Add some cream or Greek yogurt to the sauce for a creamy twist.
* Top with chopped fresh parsley or basil for a pop of color and freshness.
