Description
A comforting and flavorful rice dish made easily in the Instant Pot using tomatoes, garlic, and aromatic spices.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup rice
- 2 cups vegetable broth
- 1 can diced tomatoes
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Instructions
- Turn on the Instant Pot and set it to sauté. Add the olive oil and let it heat up. Once hot, add the chopped onions, stirring occasionally until they become translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic to the pot and cook for another minute, stirring frequently to prevent burning.

- Secure the lid and set to cook at high pressure for 10 minutes.

- Open the lid and fluff the rice with a fork. Serve warm.
Notes
Rinse rice before cooking and feel free to add other vegetables for more texture. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
