Instant Pot Hamburger Helper Recipes

INSTANT POT HAMBURGER HELPER

Steps:

• Soak the rice for at least 10 minutes before beginning the recipe. It can soak while the onion is sautéing. (Note: be sure to drain it fully before using).
• Add the avocado oil to your Instant Pot and press the Sauté button. Allow it to heat up for a couple of minutes.
• Stir in the onion and sauté, stirring occasionally, until translucent and edges begin to brown, about 5 minutes.
• Add the ground beef and brown for 2 minutes per side before breaking it into smaller pieces using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon. Stir in the garlic, dried herbs and sea salt.
• Stir in the soaked and drained white rice until well incorporated.
• Pour in the broth, tomato sauce,1 whole can of coconut milk, and cider vinegar. Stir well.
• Secure the lid on the Instant Pot and press Manual. Adjust the time setting for 10 minutes and be sure the steam vent is sealed.
• Once the pressure cooker goes through its full course, allow it to naturally release (go into keep warm mode) for 5 minutes. Manually release any remaining pressure using the quick release valve.
• Stir the hamburger helper well, and give it a taste. Add more sea salt to taste and if desired, add 1 more cup off full-fat canned coconut milk and stir well. Do note that as the hamburger helper sits, the more the rice will absorb moisture, so if you like your helper on the saucy side, be sure to add some additional coconut milk (or broth) even if you don't think you need it.
• If desired, add 1 to 2 cups of grated mild cheddar or jack cheese once the Hamburger Helper is fully cooked and stir well.
