Ingredients
  

  • 1 package frozen broccoli cheddar peirogies
  • 1 package frozen or fresh meatballs
  • 10.5 oz (1 can) French onion soup
  • 1 yellow onion sliced thin
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons fresh thyme

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the Instant Pot on "saute" mode. Add the butter and melt until frothy. Then add the onions and saute until tender, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Add the meatballs to the Instant Pot. Brown on each side for 4-5 minutes. Toss in the frozen pierogies and brown for 2-3 minutes.
  • Arrange the pierogies and meatballs in as even layer as you can in the Instant Pot. Pour in the water and French onion soup.
  • Cancel the "saute" then press "pressure cook" and set the timer to 15 minutes. Cook under pressure then perform a quick release on the Instant Pot when the timer goes off.
  • Cancel the "warming" mode and return the Instant Pot to "saute" for 5-10 minutes, as desired, to thicken the sauce. Serve garnished with fresh thyme and enjoy!
