Does anyone have this recipe?  Would love it if you will share.

If it's the chili mac from her new cookbook you may have to wait a bit as I believe it is being launched later this month.

Pre-heat the pressure cooker using the BROWN setting. 2. Add the oil and brown the beef, breaking it up as you do. Add the onion, garlic, bell peppers, Jalapeño pepper, chili powder, cayenne pepper and salt and cook for just a couple minutes more. Stir in the tomatoes, beef stock, beans and macaroni, and lock the lid in place. 3. Pressure cook on HIGH for 5 minutes. 4. Release the pressure using the QUICK-RELEASE method and carefully remove the lid. Give the ingredients a good stir and season to taste with more salt and freshly ground black pepper. Stir in the grated cheese and serve with a dollop of sour cream if you like.

Thank you both for your posts.  The chili mac demonstrated last Sunday was from her new book, but I was sure she had made it before during a demonstration.  The recipe Boop posted has kidney beans in it, and I don't remember seeing any beans in the one on Sunday.  She said all her recipes in the new book are new, but I thought she was comparing to her last pressure cookbook only.   Probably a brand new chili mac!   Maybe I will repost after her new book comes out.

Kim, I did catch at the very beginning of the cookbook presentation that Meredith confirmed all of the recipes in the new cookbook are brand new, no duplicates with any of her previous books.  I know they sold a lot of them so I'm sure someone will have the recipe once they ship.

Welcome to the Recipe forum, we're glad to see you!

I am not on FB but I went to Blue Jean Chef's FB and saw all her beautiful photos of food and her dogs.  She appears to so enjoy her life.  Made me  hungry looking at all the food.
