Meatless Instant Pot/Slow Cooker Recipes

Dinner:

Instant Pot Spinach Artichoke Mac and Cheeseโ€“creamy, cheesy pasta with fresh spinach and chopped artichokes is a perfect way to indulge while sneaking in some greens.

Slow Cooker or Instant Pot Creamy Polenta with Roasted Tomatoesโ€“easiest to make polenta ever, thanks to your electric pressure cooker! Creamy polenta is served hot with balsamic drizzled roasted tomatoes, mushrooms and garlic and then topped with tart goat cheese. A perfect meatless meal that will leave you feeling satisfied.

Instant Pot Parmesan Lemon Pastaโ€“a creamy dreamy lemon-y sauce that envelopes fettuccine noodles. You can add chicken breast or leave it meatless, itโ€™s up to you. This dinner takes just minutes to make with your electric pressure cooker.

Instant Pot Spinach Mushroom Pesto Pastaโ€“an easy, tasty and fast meatless meal of your favorite type of pasta enveloped in a basil pesto sauce with plenty of sauteed mushrooms and spinach. Add bites of chicken if you prefer.

Slow Cooker Cajun Beans and Rice–a meatless, saucy, cajun seasoned dish that uses dried beans in the slow cooker or on the stovetop. A perfect dish for Mardi Gras.

Instant Pot/Slow Cooker Garlic Herb Lentils–easy lentil stew with onions, garlic, carrots and celery. Itโ€™s almost got a creamy consistency and is super comforting. Make it fast in your pressure cooker or simmer it all day in your slow cooker.

Dave Ramsey Slow Cooker Beans and Rice Recipeโ€“if youโ€™re trying to cut down on your grocery bill I have a nourishing and inexpensive slow cooker beans recipe. We start with dried pinto beans (cheap!) and cook them all day while youโ€™re at work (earning money to pay off your debts). Add in some salt, cumin, garlic powder and tomato sauce and you have dinner (or lunch)!

Slow Cooker or Instant Pot Santa Fe Beans and Riceโ€“brown rice, kidney beans and black beans are simmered with salsa, corn and seasonings in your electric pressure cooker. The beans and rice are topped with garlic lime sour cream and grated cheddar cheese. You can serve this as a meatless meal or add in chicken for some extra protein. We love this easy and healthy, family friendly meal.

Instant Pot Pasta Primaveraโ€“A meatless pasta and vegetable dish. Rigatoni pasta is cooked quickly in your pressure cooker along with tomatoes, fresh green beans, carrots, mushrooms, garlic and zucchini. The whole dish is tossed with grated parmesan cheese.

Slow Cooker or Instant Pot Cheesy Enchilada Riceโ€“brown rice is pressure cooked with enchilada sauce and spices in minutes and then topped with sharp cheddar, diced avocado and a wedge of lime.

Slow Cooker or Instant Pot Parmesan Risottoโ€“Creamy, no fuss and no stir risotto made in just a few minutes in your electric pressure cooker. Use vegetable broth in the place of chicken broth.ย 

3-Ingredient Slow Cooker Alfredo Salsa Tortelliniโ€“creamy and slightly spicy cheesy tortellini prepared in about one minute using your slow cooker.

Slow Cooker Creamy Cauliflower Broccoli Soupโ€“a healthy and creamy slow cooker soup with pureed and seasoned cauliflower and bright green broccoli florets with a bit of cream and Parmesan cheese.

Slow Cooker or Instant Pot Mac and Cheese with Green Chilesโ€“super easy recipe for macaroni and cheese thatโ€™s spiced up with a can of green chiles and made in your electric pressure cooker.

Instant Pot or Slow Cooker Mexican Black Beans and Riceโ€“the easiest and tastiest rice ever! Brown rice is cooked in flavorful salsa with garlic salt, a bay leaf and cumin. Canned black beans make this recipe very convenient. And my favorite part is a squeeze of lime juice and a dollop of sour cream on top. Make this as a meal or as a side dish.

Slow Cooker or Instant Pot Vegan Butternut Squash Soupโ€“thick and creamy, with loads of fall flavors. This healthy soup is made quickly in your electric pressure cooker. It tastes great served with crusty bread or a handful of garlic croutons.

Slow Cooker Zucchini Lasagna–Want to eat a healthier (and delicious) version of lasagna? Try this zucchini noodle lasagna roll-ups recipe in your slow cooker (or your oven). Youโ€™ll be surprised at how you wonโ€™t even miss the noodles.

Instant Pot or Slow Cooker Panera Broccoli Cheddar Soupโ€“reminiscent of Panera Breadโ€™s broccoli cheddar soup this slow cooker version has chopped broccoli, shredded carrots and celery simmered in a velvety smooth cheese sauce. I believe this version is just as good or better than you could order at any restaurant! Try it for dinner this week.

Side Dish:

Instant Pot Cilantro Lime Potato Saladโ€“cilantro and a hint of lime create a memorable take on classic potato salad. By cooking the eggs and potatoes together in your Instant Pot youโ€™ll cut down on steps, dishes and time! Try this recipe out and you may never go back to regular potato salad again.

Instant Pot/Slow Cooker 15 Bean Salad–a variety of dried beans are cooked in your electricย pressure cooker or slow cooker and then stirred together with a red wine vinaigretteย dressing, red bell pepper, feta cheese and cilantro.

Instant Pot or Slow Cooker Hummus (without Tahini)โ€“you can cook dried chickpeas in a pressure cooker and make your own hummus from scratch. This recipe has simple ingredients, like olive oil, garlic and lemon juice, that you probably already have on hand. Hummus is a creamy and healthy dip that is perfect with crackers or raw veggies.

Slow Cooker or Instant Pot Mashed Potatoesโ€“easy to make and quick to cook, creamy and buttery mashed potatoes made with a tangy Greek yogurt twist.

Slow Cooker Orange Glazed Carrots: the best cooked carrots that youโ€™ll ever eat. This awesome side dish is made in your slow cooker and requires very little hands-on time. Theyโ€™re glazed at the end with a little orange marmalade which give the carrots an extra special taste. These slow cooker orange glazed carrots make a perfect side dish for any special holiday meal.

Instant Pot Brown Rice Recipeโ€“perfectly cooked brown rice without any fuss made in your electric pressure cooker!

Instant Pot Cafe Rio Black Beansโ€“from dried beans to cooked and seasoned in less than 45 minutes (no soaking required!). These black beans will be a hit at your next Mexican dinner. Use vegetable broth in the place of the water and bouillon.

Instant Pot Cafe Rio Cilantro Lime Riceโ€“this quickly cooked seasoned rice made in you pressure cooker is just like Cafe Rioโ€™s and it makes the perfect addition to any Mexican dish for dinner.ย Use vegetable broth in the place of the water and bouillon.

Instant Pot Ranch Potatoes–the easiest and fastest potatoes ever! This side dish of cubed yellow potatoes with ranch dressing seasoning and a little bit of butter couldn’t be easier to make but these potatoes will be eaten in no time. The perfect side dish to any meal.

Instant Pot Cilantro Lime Quinoaโ€“if youโ€™re looking for a quinoa version of cilantro lime rice from Cafe Rio look no further. This side dish is healthy and delicious and pairs perfectly with any Mexican meal.

Slow Cooker or Instant Pot White Bean Garlic Hummusโ€“dried white beans are cooked in minutes with your electric pressure cooker and then pureed with fresh lemon juice, garlic and olive oil to make a simple but delicious dip.

Instant Pot or Slow Cooker Spaghetti Squash:ย this is hands down the easiest and fastest way to cook spaghetti squash. Spaghetti squash is a healthy, low calorie alternative to regular pasta and because it has a neutral flavor it soaks up whatever seasonings or sauce you serve with it.

Slow Cooker or Instant Pot Feta Dill Sweet Potato Mashโ€“creamy mashed sweet potatoes made with garlic, feta and dill for ultimate flavor. This side dish is made in minutes in your electric pressure cooker.

Slow Cooker Green Bean Casseroleโ€“a very simple version of your favorite green bean casserole made in the slow cooker. Making this casserole in your slow cooker can free up valuable oven space and also makes this dish very portable.

Instant Pot Homestyle Vegetablesโ€“a big pot of red potatoes, carrots and green beans steamed in your Instant Pot in a few minutes. These vegetables make a perfect side dish to a chicken or beef dinner.
