Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 lb ground sausage spicy is tastiest, can use ground beef alternatively
- 1 small onion diced
- 1 jar spaghetti sauce 24 oz., we use Barilla Traditional
- 2 cup water
- 2 cup pasta uncooked, we use Barilla penne pasta
- 1 tsp garlic salt
- 1/2 tsp basil
- 2 cup mozzarella cheese we use Galbani with whole milk
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
Instructions
- Set your pressure cooker to saute.
- Add your olive oil, ground sausage or ground beef, and diced onions. Cook until outsides are no longer pink. Drain grease and return the pot to your pressure cooker.
- Turn machine off (important step so burn notification isn't triggered because it is too hot). Add spices and stir with meat/onions.
- Spread ground beef/sausage mixture out evenly across the bottom of your pot. (it creates a barrier for the noodles so they don't stick to the bottom)
- Add spaghetti sauce on top of meat, pour your 2 c. water into your spaghetti sauce jar and shake to get remaining sauce out, pour that into your pot on top of your sauce.
- Then pour your uncooked noodles in as the next layer. Do NOT stir! Just gently push down noodles so they are submerged into the liquid.
- Put lid on and set to pressure, high, for 5 minutes.
- Do a quick release.
- Stir in 1.5 c. mozzarella cheese and allow to melt. Can either stir in ricotta now or just put a dollop on top of each serving.
