My kids like pizza. I like the Instant Pot, and I do not like the cost of pizza as often as they would eat it. We needed a compromise to this dilemma, and this Instant Pot Pizza in a Bowl is the perfect solution. If your kids like pizza, chances are pretty good they are going to like this dish! I can’t wait for you to try it!

My kids are, in fact, obsessed with pizza so much that one of my sons saved a pizza box to wrap a Christmas gift, and gifted his brother with a “pizza slice” pillow because he had told his brother he was giving him pizza for six months. We’ve got a pizza thing going on! We even make pizza paninis. That’s why making Instant Pot Pizza in a Bowl is a no brainer. What’s not to love?

Basically, the Instant Pot Pizza in a Bowl is like putting all the awesome ingredients of a good pizza into a yummy pasta dish. The key is to follow the order in the instructions below as you add ingredients. It seems weird that ingredients are grouped together in sequential steps, but this works. You will like the end result!

The key to getting this dish to work without a hitch is to make sure nothing is stuck to the bottom of the pot after step six. Once you add the liquids, make sure you stir and scrape the bottom to get any bits of onion or meat still stuck!

How many other moms are looking for another kid-friendly Instant Pot dish? Well, this is it! Nothing is more kid-friendly than Instant Pot pizza in a bowl. It’s got the wow factor, the pasta factor, and it’s so easy and tasty. I’m pretty sure it’s going to be a family favorite.

If you want kid-friendly, you are also going to love my Instant Pot Chicken Tetrazzini Recipe!
