• Fresh Tomatoes
• Yellow Onion

Instructions

In a dutch oven or pot on the stovetop over medium heat add the tomatoes, onion, unsalted butter, carrots, basil and sea salt.

Bring to a boil stirring occasionally and then let simmer for 30 minutes uncovered. Stir occasionally to combine the ingredients to make sure everything is cooking down evenly.

Using an immersion blender in the post blend the ingredients until a smooth sauce forms. If you don't have an immersion blender you can carefully use a regular blender or food processor.

This easy recipe for gluten free instant pot chili mac and cheese is perfect for weeknight dinners. It's a cheap and simple homemade meal with ground beef, beans and pasta. This healthy instant pot pasta recipe is sure to become your families new favorite supper!

I love a quick and easy dinner recipe that uses ground beef! It's a bonus that it is made in the instant pot so it doesn't heat up my house during the warm months.

If you are looking for more gluten free beef recipes you might also like my Gluten Free Creamy Beef and Mushroom Pasta, Instant Pot Mexican Style Beef and Rice or my recipe for Slow Cooker Hawaiin Meatballs.

Ingredients

• Ground Beef
• Gluten Free Penne Pasta or Gluten Free Elbow Pasta
• Kidney Beans
• Yellow Onion
• Minced Garlic
• Chili Powder
• Sea Salt
• Ground Cumin
• Coarse Ground Black Pepper
• Beef Broth
• Water
• Cheddar Cheese
• Heavy Cream

Instructions

In your instant pot using the manual mode cook the ground beef until almost all of the pink is gone. Add the onion and saute until they're translucent, about 2-3 minutes.

Add the uncooked pasta, beans, chili powder, garlic, salt, cumin, pepper, beef broth and water to the instant pot in an even layer. Do not stir! This will prevent the pasta from sticking to the bottom of the pot.

Using manual pressure cook for 5 minutes. Let the steam release naturally.

Carefully remove the lid. Stir in the shredded cheese and heavy cream.

Serve with extra cheese on top and sour cream if you like.

Hint: Not all gluten free pasta holds up well in the instant pot or in general. I really like this Jovial Gluten Free Brown Rice Penne Pasta or these Tinkyada Gluten Free Elbow Pasta best.

Supplies

Substitutions

• Ground Beef - you can use ground turkey, but I would not omit meat from the recipe
• Gluten Free Penne Pasta - I used penne pasta because it holds up well and is hearty, but you could also use elbow noodles or rotini. I think brown rice pasta stays together much better than gluten free pastas with corn
• Beef Broth - you could also use chicken broth or vegetable broth. Using broth instead of just water gives more flavor
• Heavy Cream - you could use milk, but it won't be as creamy. You could substitute sour cream or cream cheese and still get a nice creamy texture

Storing and Reheating

I love this recipe as leftovers the next day! Store the leftovers in an air tight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. To reheat dish up a serving on a plate or in a bowl. Then, either add an ice cube on top or a wet paper towel on top and reheat for 1 minute in the microwave.

If using an ice cube take what's left out of the bowl and throw away. Stir the chili mac and cheese and serve.

Equipment

How long do I cook chili mac and cheese in the instant pot?

For this recipe you will brown the ground beef and cook the onion, so you will only need to pressure cook the recipe for 5 minutes using the manual mode. Then, let the pressure release manually.

This easy recipe for slow cooker Hawaiin pork tenderloin only has three ingredients! You simply add the pork, barbecue sauce and pineapple chunks to your crockpot. It is the best main dish and goes great over rice or with veggies.

How long does it take for pork to cook in the crockpot?

The pork tenderloin needs to reach an internal temperature of at least 145 degrees. I like mine to cook to 155-160 degrees before I pull it from the crockpot to cool. This should take about 2 hours on the high setting. Be sure to use a digital thermometer to test the temperature in the thickest part of the tenderloin.

Can pork tenderloin be used for pulled pork?

Pulled pork recipes typically call for pork shoulder or pork butt. You can however definitely use pork tenderloin for pulled pork though. This recipe is perfect to use for pulled pork.

Instead of cutting the cooked meat into medallions you can shred it using two forks. There is lots of leftover juice with this recipe that you can mix with the pulled pork to keep it juicy.

Slow Cooker Hawaiin Pork Tenderloin Ingredients

• Pork Tenderloin or Center Cut Pork Loin
• Pineapple Chunks
• Barbecue Sauce
