I'm all about cheese and a bit of spice, so how could you go wrong with Instant Pot nacho soup I thought. It turned out delicious!! It is definitely one of my favorite soup Instant Pot recipes on cold evenings as well as during a Super Bowl party! (originally published 12/17, affiliate links present)

Fiesta Nacho Cheese Soup

So I had never had nacho soup before but heard about it in passing and thought it had to be my next pressure cooker soup!

Let's start with a few basic tips:

• Make sure to Bookmark our InstaPot recipes page. We add new ones each week!
• Then PRINT this —–> Instant Pot cooking times cheat sheet that will help you understand how long meat, vegetables and beans take to cook in your pressure cooker.
  • This is a great InstaPot cookbook and set of wooden utensils are great to grab too.
  • I HIGHLY recommend you buy this non stick pot. It is easier to clean and will avoid the burn message too.

For reference, this is the pressure cooker I have and use for all recipe creations.

• Serve it with a bowl of scoop tortilla chips on the side or as is or with some soft rolls too.

At first I grabbed cheddar cheese soup to use as the base but found Campbells fiesta nacho cheese soup right next to that! I thought that would even be better!

I do think that added a bit more spice and nacho like flavor but if you couldn't find that a can of condensed cheddar cheese soup would do just as well.

Just in case you need tips on how to thaw out your Instant Pot ground beef because you forgot to take it out the night before it's here.

Pressure Cooker nacho soup

• Fiesta nacho cheese condensed soup – can use cheddar cheese condensed soup too as an alternative, if you want heat add 1/2 finely diced jalapeno
• Petite diced tomatoes – I like the smaller version but either way really

Diced chiles – use any heat level, I use medium and it's perfect but if you don't want much spice use mild

Milk – 2% works best to make it a bit thicker, fat free works too if that is what you have

• Ground beef – this is how to thaw Instant Pot frozen ground beef in case you forgot to take it out the night before.
• Taco seasoning – 1 packet or you can make your own and use 1 oz.
• Onion – can omit if desired

Cheddar cheese is a must of course – sharp is best if you ask me.

The fiesta nacho cheese soup isn't as yellow as the "regular" version so the color at the end looks like this.

I don't drain the diced tomatoes either so that lends itself to a bit of a reddish tint. When I brown the meat with my diced onions I don't bother to drain the grease. That part it is up to you and you, can drain it if you wish.

• I tend to buy low fat beef so there isn't much grease left. What little there is lends to added flavor in my opinion so I choose not to.

I follow this same method when making my Instant Pot spaghetti too…but like any recipe do what you choose.

It turns out really beefy and filling, with a side of chips it fed the 5 of us well.

Of course all of the recipes I make on The Typical Mom are simple….that's just the way I roll.

I now use it several times a week  to make Instant Pot dinner recipes in less than 20 minutes.

This is one of our favorite Instant Pot soups, so once you're done trying this you should try these other easy pressure cooker recipes too:
