Step-by-Step Instructions for Low-Carb Vegetarian Comfort Casserole
- Begin by thoroughly washing and chopping the zucchini, cauliflower, and bell peppers into bite-sized pieces. Dice one onion and mince three cloves of garlic. Gather all your ingredients to ensure a smooth cooking process.
- Set your Instant Pot to the 'Sauté' function and let it warm up for a couple of minutes. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sautéing until fragrant and translucent, about 2-3 minutes.
- Next, stir in the diced bell peppers, zucchini, and cauliflower, cooking for an additional 3-5 minutes until they begin to soften.
- Once the vegetables are tender, lower the heat and stir in the cream cheese. Allow it to melt slightly before adding in the vegetable broth and Italian seasoning.
- Mix everything well until fully combined, ensuring that each ingredient is coated in the creamy mixture.
- Secure the Instant Pot lid, set the valve to the 'sealing' position, and select the 'Pressure Cook' setting on high for 10 minutes.
- Once the cooking time is complete, carefully perform a quick release of the pressure by switching the valve to 'venting.' Stir the mixture gently after removing the lid.
- Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese carefully, letting the residual heat melt the cheese as you mix.
- Spoon the delightful casserole into bowls, serving it hot for maximum flavor.
