Instant Pot Sloppy Joes
All the robust flavors you remember from eating Sloppy Joes, with none of the refined sugars. Bonus, eat them over potatoes and they are gluten free!
Equipment
- Pressure cooker
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1½-2 pounds ground beef
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 1 small bell pepper, any color, chopped
- 2 tsp minced garlic
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tbsp dijon mustard
- 1 tbsp tomato paste
- 15 ounce can tomato sauce
- 1½ tbsp honey (omit if on a Whole30 plan)
- ½ tsp dried parsley
- large pinch salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Turn Instant Pot to sauté and add olive oil. Throw in onion and bell pepper and cook until onion begins to be translucent, just a few minutes.
- Add ground beef and cook until browned, breaking up into small pieces as it browns.
- Add garlic, salt and pepper and stir. Cook 2 more minutes.
- Turn off the pressure cooker and add vinegar, mustard, tomato paste, tomato sauce, honey, and parsley. Stir.*Note: Do not add honey if on a Whole30 plan.
- Close lid and seal. Cook on high pressure for 7 minutes.
- Let pressure natural release for 5 minutes, then open the valve to release the rest of the pressure. Open lid, stir, and serve! To keep it gluten free and Whole30 compliant you can serve this on a baked potato. Otherwise it tastes great on a toasted bun! Enjoy!
