Can you make Instant Pot meatloaf using ground turkey meat?
You can. One simple way to cut out some of the fat content in your recipes is to swap out the ground beef and use ground turkey meat instead. You won’t even notice a taste difference really but just be certain to make a note of any changes that you’ll need to do for future recipes as turkey meat can sometimes cook up drier due to less fat content.

Ingredients FOR MEATLOAF BITES
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 pound ground pork sausage
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 2 eggs
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- non stick spray
- 2 cups ketchup
- 1/4 tsp paprika

HOW TO MAKE MEATLOAF INSTANT POT BITES
In a large mixing bowl, mix together your beef, sausage, breadcrumbs, eggs, salt, and pepper.
Spray your molds with cooking spray.
Fill each mold with the meatloaf mixture. Cover the mold with your silicone lids. If the mold you have doesn’t come with one, you can cover with aluminum foil.
Add 1 cup of water to your Instant Pot. Add your trivet to the Pot then add your silicone molds on top of the trivet. You can add up to two layers of molds in your Pot.
Cooking Meatloaf Bites In The Instant Pot
Cook on High Pressure for 35 minutes.
Once done cooking, manually open the valve using a towel or hot pad to prevent burning from the hot steam.
Once the steam has quit, remove the molds carefully by using a hot pad or towel, and pulling the trivet out. Place each mold on a cooling rack. Allow to cool in the molds for 5 minutes.
Remove and serve with ketchup!
This would make a great party food idea, or you might want to serve these as a main with mash, vegetables and gravy.

This yummy goodness in 10 minutes is the motivation I need to have the girls over this weekend
These look amazing and I know my son would love a bite like that. I do not have an instant pot so I would have to try it in an oven or air fryer.
This is something that my husband would love for dinner. These sound so simple to make.
What a neat idea. I love bite size portions like this, and these bites sound like they would have a great consistency.
I’m sure this is so delicious since the ingredients are slightly similar to what we called “embutido”.
It’s a great idea to make meatloaf bites! My family will love it for an appetizer or a movie night dinner!
Meatloaf is so heavenly. My wife and I love it and we have a favorite restaurant near our place where we always have meatloaf. Unfortunately, it closed down because of the pandemic. These days though, I think cooking at home is the safest option so I’ll try this recipe.
That’s so clever. These are perfect finger food for picnics over the summer. I’ve not tried meatloaf before so this would be interesting.
