Taco Pie has always been a favorite. Once I got my Instant Pot I knew I had to convert this recipe, and make instant pot taco pie!
And yall, this ain'tyour ordinary taco Tuesday taco dish! You have layers of meat mixture in between tortillas, the motherload of cheese, and topped with your favorite toppings.
We love to top ours with Nacho Cheese Doritos, sour cream, fresh avocado, tomatoes, and of course a little salsa. This is a super easy Instant Pot beef recipe that you can whip up any day of the week without heating up your house.
This recipe was an adaptation of a Taco Pie recipe I used to make in the oven. My kids loved it so it was only right to try it out in my IP.
I totally love that making this into an Instant Pot recipe meant leaving the large skillet where it sat. We love this Instant Pot Taco Pie! Everyone who tries it does too.
The flavors just marry perfectly together and it can be made in no time, so it makes it easy for the cook.
It is a complete meal all on its own, or add some chips and queso as a side and dinner is served.
ThisInstant Pot Taco Pie was amazing and super easy to make! Only 10 minutesafter my pot came to the needed pressure. With October 4th being national taco day, this recipe came just in time!
You could easily swap out the ground beef for ground turkey. Even shredded turkey, chicken thighs or chicken breast, or spread some brown rice onto the tortillas.
And you can use corn tortillasinstead of flour! Make it yourown, it will still be amazing! Pressure cooking is easy! And so much fun!
I love the idea of having layers of meat, tortillas, and cheese, you get everything in each bite.
Step out from what you are used to and try this recipe out. You won't regret it. If you want to add some black beans with the meat mixture. Maybe canned corn even diced tomatoes, to add even more flavor to your taco pie.
I like to make mine basic and then add flavor by toppings.
My family loves having Instant Pot beef recipes handy to add to our meals because ground beef is something we have quite often.
I like to find new ways to use it so it doesn't feel like we are eating the same five dinners each week. I hope this new instant pot beef recipe helps you and your family too!

Here are some items that I recommend if you are going to be making this recipe. I find these tools helpful in making the cooking a bit easier along the way.
Hamburger Meat Chopper|This is a great tool that I use anytime I want to get my meat ground up when cooking it. It breaks it down into small pieces perfectly and helps get the meat to a consistent size and helps all the meat cook through. I have used this for years.
Springform Pan| For me a springform is great because with the latch released you can lift the outside edge of the pan away, and you have that perfect looking taco pie. Then just slice your taco pie and serve it up for a beautiful presentation. This springform pan works great in my Instant Pot.
or
Stackable Stainless Steel Pressure Cooker Steamer|This could also replace what the springform pan does, except you can't remove the side of the pan, you would cut the taco pie in the dish and then serve it up.
Silicone Sling|This is great to use to lift your pan out of the Instant Pot without burning yourself. You sit this under your pan and then grab the handles and lift up with pot holders when your taco pie is done.
