We examine N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories which confine in the presence of a tree-level superpotential. We show the confining spectra which satisfy the {close_quote}t Hooft anomaly matching conditions and give a simple method to find the confining superpotential. Using this method, we fix the confining superpotentials in the simplest cases and show how these superpotentials are generated by multi-instanton effects in the dual theory. These new types of confining theories may be useful for model building, since the size of the matter content is not restricted by an index constraint. Therefore, one expects that a large variety of new confining spectra can be obtained using such models. {copyright} {ital 1999} {ital The American Physical Society}
