If you scroll through my recipes, you will quickly realize that my family LOVES a good Instant Pot meal! Not only does it help me get dinner on the table in no time, but Instant Pot can make just about anything! Appetizers, desserts, meats, soups, pasta dishes, and more!
Instant Pot Tuna Noodle Casserole is comfort food that fills you up and tastes so creamy and delicious! Tender noodles, bits of tuna, veggies, and cheese combined into one flavor packed meal!
Tuna Casserole is one of those classic dishes everyone loves! Growing up, it was a meal that my mom included in her meal rotation and the entire family enjoyed!
As years pass and I am now a mom of my own, I have changed things up a bit to fit the preferences of my kids. My daughter is allergic to peas; therefore, I use corn in this meal! If you like peas, feel free to use! I also love to add in extra cheese for an added creaminess!
