This is the perfect recipe for when you want a comfort meal but don’t have all day to prepare one. The Instant Pot gives it that cooked-all-day feel, with tender, satisfying meats and rich, but not too thick sauce. Taking out the traditional sugar and carrots makes this keto-approved, but the tomatoes make up for the lack in natural sweetness. 

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 cup finely diced white onion
• 1/2 cup finely diced celery
• 2 ounces diced pancetta
• 1 pound ground pork

• 3/4 teaspoon black pepper
