    Instant Pot Meatball and Potato Soup

    Instant Pot meatball and potato soup has simple, clean flavors that allow the meatballs and vegetables to speak for themselves.

    This soup can be thought of as a “poor man’s beef stew” with meatballs in place of pieces of steak. It’s equally delicious and has its own unique flavors.

    How to Make Meatball and Potato Soup

    • Rinse and dice all vegetables into bite-size pieces.
    • In a large bowl, mix together meatball ingredients and then shape into 1″ balls. A small cookie scoop works perfectly for getting the right size and shape.
    • Set the Instant Pot to the Saute setting and add olive oil.
    • Once it is hot, add meatballs and cook until they are browned, about 2-3 minutes per side. You may need to work in 2 batches to get all of them cooked. Set them to the side after they are done cooking.
    • Pour chicken broth into the pot and scrape up any tidbits left from the meatballs. Add all soup ingredients except the meatballs and stir.
    • Carefully place the meatballs back in the pot and stir.
    • Place the lid on, with the vent sealed, and select Meat/Stew. Set it to cook on ‘more’ or ‘high’ for 20 minutes.
    • Once it is done cooking, quick release by opening the vent.
