Now we had gone to Seaside, Oregon last winter and we were lucky enough to be able to stay in a condo, and now my kids are spoiled and hooked!! The condo was right on the beach and also had a full kitchen! Since we had the kids with us we opted to meal plan before went and we took our Instant pots with us. I am still trying to figure mine out so I was excited about the in-person demonstrations to suck up her Instant Pot knowledge. Don’t worry we made other recipes I can’t wait to share with you either! Eating in the condo saved us so much money!

Easy Instant Pot Pasta And Meatballs Ingredients:

2 Boxes of rotini pasta
2 Jars of pasta sauce
2 Pasta jars of water
3lbs of mini meatballs
Garlic salt to taste
Italian seasoning to taste

**Not use rotini or penne the spaghetti noodles won’t work as well due to thinness and shape, I wasn’t going to question her the kids still devoured it**

**Note you can half this we made the big batch since we were feeding kids and wanting leftovers**

Easy Instant Pot Pasta And Meatballs Directions:

Put a splash of water in the inner liner pot and turn the Instant Pot onto saute. We made this dinner in her 8 quart Instant Pot (you can see it ->here on Amazon) I personally have the 6 Quart Instant Pot, but this amount won’t fit in mine so we used her. However, I will be doing this as halved in mine.
**Instant Pot hack – I learned if you flip it to saute right away it warms up the inner liner to lower the amount of warm-up time for cooking the food**
