Instant Pot French Onion Soup

September 12, 2020 by Anna 5 Comments

This Instant Pot French Onion Soup is classic comfort food made in the pressure cooker. It tastes as it was simmering on the stove all day but it’s done in 30 minutes!

This soup is one of many family favorites I make in my Instant Pot. We also love the Instant Pot Pot Roast and Instant Pot French Dip Sandwiches. Pure comfort food!

The soup season is almost here and the cooler days will make us all crave comfort food. What better than a classic French onion soup with toasted cheesy baguette slices on top! This time, I am using my trusty Instant Pot to cut down on cooking time. Rich, flavorful and absolutely delicious! It’s one of the best soups you will make in your pressure cooker this fall and winter.

Instant Pot Carnitas

Instant Pot Carnitas are made with pork shoulder, fresh orange and lime juice, seasoning and cooked in your pressure cooker until juicy and tender. Broil until crispy and use it to make tacos, burritos, bowls or Mexican salads!

Instant Pot cooks meat in half the time without much prep work. These carnitas are so easy to make, just like my Instant Pot pulled pork or the ultra-tender pot roast.

As soon as these carnitas came out of my Instant Pot, I knew I hit the jackpot! The meat is super tender, juicy and full of flavor. So much better than slow cooking, in my opinion! I broiled the shredded meat in my oven to get the signature, classic crispy bits. Don’t skip this step! They are delicious!

Serve it as tacos or burritos. I also love to serve them with beans and rice in bowls, with our favorite toppings. This meat freezes and reheats great so you can make it ahead of time.

Instant Pot Beef Stroganoff

This Instant Pot Beef Stroganoff is made with ground beef, wide egg noodles and it cooks in 4 minutes. No canned soup needed!

The pressure cooker allows you to make pasta dinners in minutes, like my popular Spaghetti recipe or my Chili Mac recipe.

One of our favorite pasta dinners is definitely beef stroganoff. It was just a matter of time before I had a delicious version of it cooked in my Instant Pot! It’s even faster to make and 100% family approved. I prefer cooking pasta with meat as it makes the dish more flavorful. Simply brown the meat with seasoning, onion and garlic, then add liquids and pasta. Pressure cooking time is only 4 minutes, then just a quick release and your dish is ready for sour cream. Serve it with garlic bread to soak up every bit of the delicious sauce!
