So since I posted my Creamy Instant Pot Spaghetti – which, is SO insanely good!! – I have had people tell me, Ummm, but what if I want meatballs. And then I’ve just randomly had readers tell me that they want more instant pot recipes, and at the top of their list is Instant Pot Meatballs and Spaghetti. So here you have it my friends!
HOW DO YOU MAKE MEATBALLS IN THE INSTANT POT?
I made this recipe going off of my recipe for healthy meatballs, but you could also use frozen meatballs, and then this recipe would only be FOUR ingredients.
INGREDIENTS FOR PRESSURE COOKER MEATBALLS
Chicken Stock. It is key that you add this first. Pasta. Add this after the chicken stock. Spaghetti Sauce. You want to add this after the first two ingredients because if it goes in first, or is too close the bottom it can scorch and prevent your pressure cooker from coming to pressure. Meatballs! I have a few different meatball recipes that you could use here.

HOW LONG DO YOU COOK MEATBALLS IN INSTANT POT?
The total time for this recipe is about 45 minutes if you make your own meatballs, or 30 minutes if you use frozen ones. That’s right my friends! You could use frozen meatballs in this recipe. Just like in my Honey BBQ Instant Pot Cocktail Meatballs I give the options of both frozen or fresh meatballs, and they both cook for the same amount of time.
