Breakfast Stuffed Peppers in the Instant Pot are a quick and delicious meal any time of the day. Perfectly cooked peppers are loaded with soft scrambled eggs, breakfast sausage, peppers, onions, and just enough cheese.
1. Cut the tops off the peppers and clean out the insides. Make sure all your peppers can stand up evenly. You might need to slice a small amount off the bottom of the peppers to help them stand straight.
2. In your Instant Pot on the "Sautee" setting, or in a skillet on the stovetop, cook the breakfast sausage, sliced onions, diced peppers, and italian seasoning, stirring frequently, until the sauasge is cooked through and the onions are transulent.
6. Continue filling the peppers with the spinach mixture, leaving room at the top for the egg mixture. Depending on the size and thickness of your peppers, you might have some left over.
7. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk.
Carefully pour the egg mixture into each pepper, over the sausage mixture. Pour slowly, as it will need some time to settle. Do not overfill.
8. If you cooked the sausage mixture in the instant pot, wipe the pot out and replace it. Place a trivet into the pot of the instant pot. Pour 1 cup of water inside the pot.
15. Make sure there is no condensation on the lid of the instant pot, and then place back on for a few minutes to melt the cheese (you don't have to seal it, just place it on).
