Swedish Meatballs and noodels, in the Instant Pot

This is one of my kids' most FAVORITE recipe.  I love to add a side of steamed carrots to finish off the meal (I'll share that Instant Pot recipe below!) Enjoy!

Original recipe found here.

Swedish Meatballs

1 lb frozen meatballs

2 1⁄2 cups beef broth

1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce

1 tsp minced garlic

1 tsp dried parsley

1⁄2 tsp salt

1⁄4 tsp pepper

3 cups egg noodles

1⁄2 cup half and half or heavy cream

1 Tbsp corn starch

Place meatballs in Instant Pot with beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, garlic,

parsley, salt and pepper. Stir until spices are combined.

Add noodles (uncooked), spread into an even layer and press down gently but do

not stir- they will not be completely submerged and that is ok.

Put the lid on and seal. Cook on high Pressure for 3 minutes. Then do a quick

release. The noodles may appear dry on top, but it is OK I promise! Stir them

into the meatballs. In a separate bowl, whisk together cream and cornstarch.

Then stir it into the meatballs. Tun Instant Pot to Saute and cook and stir

until sauce has thickened.

Instant Pot steamed Carrots

This is my all time favorite side dish. It’s also the most lame “recipe”.  I

place all my baby carrots in a steamer basket. Add 1 cup of water to pot,

insert steamer basket and add lid and seal. Cook on high pressure for 5

minutes. Do a quick release and enjoy!

**sometimes I get a little crazy with my carrots though. If you want

seasoned carrots then don’t use the steamer basket. Add 16 oz bag carrots

directly to pot then add 2 cups water. Seal lid and cook on high pressure for 5

minutes. Do a quick release. Drain water. Add 2 Tbsp butter, and sprinkle with

garlic powder, Italian seasoning and salt and pepper to taste. Enjoy!
