Mix Up Your Meatballs
We love using a combination of beef and pork for our meatballs. It gives them an extra little punch of flavor, and then we add some simple seasonings. We also add some almond flour to help bind and also to keep the meatballs tender once cooked in your Instant Pot. Mixing up your meatballs and getting them into your Instant Pot is the hardest part of this recipe, and it’s not even that hard, but maybe a little messy if you’re like me and just go for it with your hands to mix everything up. It’s worth it though! This recipe will give you leftovers to enjoy and you’ll feel like you’re eating total comfort food!
Spaghetti Squash Noodles
If you’ve never used spaghetti squash before, you are in for a real treat! It is such a great way to get the texture of noodles without the grains, making it a lower carb, vegetable option! We like to cook ours in the oven so the squash and meatballs end up being ready at about the same time. You can also cook your squash in your Instant Pot, and here are some instructions for doing that. You could make the squash in advance and store it in the fridge to just reheat it when you’re ready to serve your Instant Pot spaghetti and meatballs. You’ll save a little time and effort in the kitchen the night you enjoy this dinner if you do.
Serve It Up + Enjoy More Later
One of our favorite ways to meal prep without it feeling like extra work is to make a large meal for dinner Sunday night. Then, we have dinner that night and leftovers in the fridge going into the work week to reheat for lunch or dinner as needed on a busy day. It makes life easier, and we are all for that! If you’re new to the concept of meal prepping, give it a try and see how it feels! It’s so nice having the leftovers on stand-by in the fridge, and this Instant Pot spaghetti and meatballs is the perfect meal to make for these purposes.
