One you make this Macaroni and Cheese recipe, it will become your favorite! It’s so easy that you won’t even want to bother with a boxed mix again. This version uses four cheeses to create the perfect gooey, tangy, and creamy sauce. Each spoonful overflows with melted cheese. Feel free to add a dash of hot sauce or sprinkle the top with crispy cooked pieces of bacon. Excerpted from The “I Love My Instant Pot®” Three-Step Recipe Book by Robin Fields. Available where books are sold.

  1. Pour broth into an Instant Pot®, then add macaroni, salt, pepper, and butter. Use a wooden spoon to stir. Place the lid on the Instant Pot® and click into place to close.

  3. Add in remaining ingredients, stirring until cheese is melted and fully incorporated. Serve warm
