Share:
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 1 large yellow onion diced
- 1 Jalapeño diced
- 1 can black beans rinsed and drained
- 1 cup mushrooms diced
- ½ cup red peppers diced
- 1 cup fresh or frozen corn optional
- 1 pound pasta shells
- 2 tablespoons taco seasoning mix ** love trader joes or Primal Palate
- 2 cups salsa
- 4 cups low sodium vegetable broth
Garnish
- ½ cup cilantro chopped
- 1 cup pepper jack cheese grated
- 1 avocado diced optional
Instructions
- Turn the Instant Pot to sauté mode and heat oil. Add onions and jalapeños. Sauté for 2-3 mins.
- Add black beans, mushrooms, peppers and corn. Add taco seasoning and mix everything together.
- Add pasta and broth. Mix well gently pushing the pasta under the liquids. Layer over the salsa but do not mix. This will prevent the BURN error on newer Instant Pots.
- Close the Instant Pot with pressure valve to sealing. Pressure cook for 4 mins. Note: Cook time for the pasta shells I used was 9 minutes.
- Quick-release and open the Instant Pot. Garnish with cilantro. Stir in half of the cheese. Serve with topped remaining cheese and diced avocados.

Notes
- Add enough water/broth/sauce so that most of the pasta is under the liquids
- For well-cooked pasta, pressure cook pasta for half the time on the pasta box
- For Al dente pasta, pressure cook for half the time on the pasta box minus 1 minute. This timing also works for gluten-free pasta
- Remember to add the cheese after the pasta is done pressure cooking
