Instructions

Place the ground beef into the pot of the pressure cooker.

Set the cooker to saute and brown the ground beef.

Once the ground beef is browned, add in the broth, pasta, seasoning and tomatoes.

Stir the contents of the pot well and be sure that the pasta is completely covered.

Place the lid on the pot and set the vent to the “sealed” position.

Set the pressure cooker to cook for 5 minutes on the manual high pressure setting. (If you prefer your pasta al dente then only cook for 4 minutes.)

Once the cooking cycle has finished, do a quick pressure release.

Add 8 oz of Velveeta cheese to the pot and stir continually until it’s melted.

Add the bacon to the pot and stir continually until it’s melted.

Serve immediately.

I make goulash at least once a month. As well as cheeseburgers. It would be amazing to try this recipe so I could make both dishes at the same time.

You had me at bacon. Granted I will probably make this dish with ground turkey and turkey bacon, it is definitely being added to my Instant Pot recipe files. Looks so good.

Looking at the pictures makes me drool over this and wanting to taste it on my own. I'd love to try this and knowing that there is bacon on it makes me more excited to try on.

This goulash sounds so amazing. I think I would really enjoy the combination of cheeseburger and bacon. It sounds like it was easy to make too.
