Instant Pot Cheesy Mashed Potatoes Notes:

  • I love this little gadget to make straining a breeze! You still have to wash it, but it it takes up a lot less space in my dishwasher than a colander!
  • Looking for more recipes? Our Recipe Finder can help you find exactly what you need.
  • Check out all our favorite recommendations for cookbooks,slow cookers and low carb essentials in our Amazon Influencer Shop.
  • As with any of our recipes, carb counts, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly. As a result, your nutritional content depends on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish. The auto-calculation is just an automated estimate and should NOT be used for specific dietary needs.
  • Finally, all electric pressure cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline. Recipes should  always be tested first in your own electric pressurecooker and time adjusted as needed .
