Hey Instant Pot family,

There’s something about the start of fall that makes us crave warm, cozy dinners again. But between work, school, errands, and everything else going on during the week, we don’t always have the time—or energy—to spend hours figuring out what to make.

That’s where having a few easy dinner ideas can make the week a whole lot simpler. Whether you have less than 25 minutes, only a handful of ingredients in the kitchen, or some ground beef you need to use up, you can still get a satisfying dinner on the table without making it a big project.

And as the weather starts cooling down, this is the perfect time to bring back those comforting fall flavors. Think creamy pasta, pumpkin and squash, hearty ground beef dinners, and cozy meals that feel just right at the end of a busy day.

We’ve rounded up some of our favorite easy fall dinner ideas to help take the guesswork out of what to cook this week.

Hopefully, that’s one less question you have to answer this week when someone asks, “What’s for dinner?”

Have a great week and weekend ahead!
