Instant Pot Risotto with Shrimp and Veggies

This low fuss Instant Pot Risotto recipe with shrimp and veggies is one of those meals that tastes like you’ve slaved over the stove all day, but it can actually be on your table in no time at all!

I go through phases with my Instant Pot. Sometimes I love it and use it all the time. Other times it will go back into my pantry and I’ll forget about it for months. When it’s hot, it’s hot and when it’s not, it’s not. I’m pretty sure I’m not the only one who has this kind of relationship with their pressure cooker. Any small appliance, really. Out of sight, out of mind!

Well, today I have a recipe for Instant Pot Risotto with Shrimp and Veggies that is well worth bringing your instant pot out of hiding for. I promise! If you love risotto, but don’t love having to babysit it on the stovetop for a long time, this recipe is for you!Instant Pot Risotto in a glass bowl with shrimp and veggies

I am going to start by getting this out of the way because it drives me crazy when I see a recipe and think it’s all done in one pot. The only part of this recipe made in the instant pot is the risotto. The shrimp and veggies are cooked in a skillet while your pressure cooker is making risotto magic. Besides, I’m not sure but I think shrimp in the instant pot would be kind of gross. Wouldn’t it turn out all rubbery and tough? I have no idea, but I just wanted to be upfront with you. Having you annoyed with me before we got too far into things wouldn’t be good. 

(OK – I digress but I guess there are a lot of Instant Pot Shrimp recipes out there, so obviously, what do I know?)

One more thing I should probably get out of the way. Real chefs, which I am definitely not one, will probably disagree with me that delicious tasting risotto can be made in just a short amount of time.

Isn’t risotto supposed to be a labor of love? The simmering and stirring over the pot, making sure the arborio rice is cooked to perfection? Adding just enough wine, cheese, butter and love so that it’s not mushy and not too firm?

Well, I’ve had some pretty amazing risotto at fine restaurants and I would say this pressure cooker risotto can stand up to those when it comes to texture and flavor! It isn’t mushy at all and requires very little effort from me. For a mom just trying to get a nutritious dinner on the table, that is a huge plus.

This recipe was inspired by one I recently saw in Taste of Home Magazine. Taste of Home is always one of my go-to favorite sources for family-friendly recipes. They hit it out of the park with this one. I didn’t adjust the risotto much but changed up the shrimp and veggie part based on the veggies and ingredients I typically have on hand. This version has been on repeat in our house and it’s just about perfect!

For their exact recipe from Taste of Home, check out the October 2019 issue. For my version, see below! Happy cooking!

Have you ever been creatively stuck?

December 2019 my absolute favorite camera lens fell out of the cabinet I keep it in and shattered in a million pieces. I cried for days and days. I barely picked up my DSLR in 2020 because I just felt so uninspired. I couldn’t get the shots I was visualizing in my head with the lenses I had. 
.
Nick and the kids replaced my favorite lens as a Christmas gift and I’m ecstatic to be shooting again! I joined my incredibly talented friend @kimklassen creative photography Inner Circle for extra inspiration this year. Assignment 1 out of the gate and I already feel eager and excited about photography again! (You can see my “tell a story through multiples” in my Instagram story.)
.
Three cheers for bursting with inspiration again, after all this time.

Last year I couldn’t believe I was old enough to have an 18 year old. This year I look in the mirror and see someone old enough to have a 19 year old. This past year has been a lot and man, it has physically aged me! But one things solid and firm...I love my kids and am so proud of them! The resilience Jacob has shown this past year has impressed me...”graduating” high school, starting college, all when things have been so up in the air and unsure. And never once complaining about it. My kids haven’t lost a thing this year...instead they’ve gained so much they wouldn’t have gained without this experience. I’m so proud to be their mom. Happy 19th birthday @jacobdoyle02 We are fiercely proud of you and love you so much!

I always read so much in the last couple weeks of the year, I could never have my “best of” choices finalized. Christmas break is my favorite time to read read read!
.
I’m finishing up All About Us and The Prettiest Star, and then have this awesome stack to tackle! What should I read next? So many good ones to choose from! Will any of these make my 2020 top ten?

This is the recipe my sister-in-law uses and it is the BEST tasting, no fail sugar cookie recipe. It’s from a really old issue of @tasteofhome magazine with a frosting recipe she wrote down in the margin. I could eat so many of these and never get tired of them! If you want the recipe let me know and I’ll dm you the picture! Is making decorated cut out cookies one of your Christmas traditions?

It’s a book giveaway! I often get people asking me for book recommendations. Talking books is one of my favorite things to do! So when @librofm gave me the opportunity to give away three audio copies of any audiobook I wanted to, I knew immediately which book I wanted to share.
.
@roblowe book, Stories I Only Tell My Friends is the audiobook I recommend to EVERYONE. It is a book I listened to years ago, not expecting to love it, but I absolutely did. First of all, Rob Lowe narrates...so there’s that lovely bonus. But Stories I Only Tell My Friends is a funny, raw, emotional, informative, peek inside of the life of a really fascinating celebrity.
.
I wasn’t a Rob Lowe super fan before. I haven’t watched West Wing (I know, I know), Brothers & Sisters, Parks & Rec, or any of his TV shows, but I have always been a HUGE Brat Pack fan. Well, after listening to this audiobook I am a big fan (and his other audiobook, Love Life, is great too).
.
Long story short, I have three codes through @librofm to give to 3 people. To enter, leave a comment on this post by midnight CST on 12/16 telling me what your favorite audiobook is and why! Also, definitely check out Libro.fm - the best audiobook platform that also gives back to local bookstores!

“I can’t wait for my seasonal depression to meet my year 2020 depression.” 😩

If S.A.D is something you worry about each year, but especially this year, let me introduce you to my seasonal affective disorder game changer, the @sunrisesensations light therapy lamp. I ordered one of these lamps last year at the recommendation of my friend @leslieradams and it is the best (& most stylish) light therapy lamp I’ve ever used. I absolutely love it and highly recommend it...it’s well worth the money.
.
@sunrisesensations has a new, smaller lamp called Bright Box. The size snd functionality is perfect for a nightstand or office desk. Let me know if you have any questions about how these lamps continue to help me fight those pesky winter blues! Check out Sunrise Sensations to find the right UV free light therapy box for you!

With Libro.fm you can financially support your local bookstore AND buy audiobooks all at the same time. Each audiobook purchase supports the independent book store of your choice! Do it for yourself and buy some audiobooks for friends too!
.

If you need audiobook ideas, hit me up. I’ve listened to so many great books this year that will make it on my top favorites list, including Greenlights by @officiallymcconaughey It’s narrated by the author and is so worth the listen! Your ears will thank you!
.
PS my favorite #localbookstore @rainydaybooks is under renovation which makes it even better that I can still safely support them from the comfort of my own home!
