I love a fresh and healthy risotto… but making it the traditional way on the stove top takes a lot of time and a lot of patience. This recipe is a true weeknight wonder!  
 
I couldn’t even believe that you could make a proper risotto in the Instant Pot, but it the consistency turns out perfect.  No constant stirring, or standing by the stove. The pressure cooker does all the work.

This Instant Pot Vegetable Risotto Recipe Is:

  • Bright
  • Earthy
  • Fresh
  • Versatile
  • Healthy
  • Vegan & Gluten Free
  • Ready in about 20 minutes (only cooks for 7 minutes)
 
This green risotto in the instant pot is super versatile. You can use whatever ingredients you have on hand, or are growing in your garden. I used kale, peas, zucchini, and green onions in mine… but add what you like! Tomatoes, bell peppers, fresh corn, or butternut squash would all be excellent  additions.  Just make sure to add about 2 cups of vegetables for every cup of rice, and you should be set!

I have a whole section of The Herbeevore dedicated to Easy Weeknight Meals, that are great for the whole family. From soups and stews, to pastas and proteins – a healthy meal can be on your table in no time.  Even faster than ordering takeout!

Instant Pot for the Easiest Meal Prep Risotto Ever!

For all my recipes I use the 8-Quart Instant Pot Ultra, its larger than the standard models (which are only 6 quart) so I have extra room to meal prep and batch cook more meals for the week. The Ultra model also has some great extra settings like cake baking and yogurt making which are really neat. I love that everything can cook in one pot, which makes for way less dishes and hands-off cooking. The Instant Pot is hands-down my favorite kitchen appliance, and actually makes my life so much easier.
