Pressure-Cooker Chipotle Porcupine Meatballs image

My family loves porcupine meatballs. We have been eating this retro dish for years-I just updated it with a little more spice for myself. With the electronic pressure cooker, it is ready in minutes and is great for a day I don't have a lot of time. It makes some great leftover makeovers, too! -Noelle Myers, Grand Forks, North Dakota

These meatballs were a little dry for my taste. I think I would add more liquid next time.

The meatballs were a little spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I think next time I will use less chipotle pepper.

I love how easy these meatballs were to make. I was able to throw everything in my pressure cooker and walk away. Dinner was ready in no time!

These chipotle porcupine meatballs were a hit with my family! The combination of flavors was perfect, and the meatballs were so moist and tender. I will definitely be making these again.
