Instructions
Set Instant Pot to Sauté mode and brown sausage with garlic, onions and peppers, breaking it up as it cooks.
Once cooked, add jar of pasta sauce, one jar-full of water, basil, Italian seasoning, penne pasta, and a few handfuls of baby spinach to the pot.
Close the lid, set the vent to “sealing,” and set the Instant Pot to Manual for 5 minutes. It will likely take around 10 minutes to reach pressure.
Once the timer goes off, allow a 9-minute natural pressure release. Once the pot reads L0:09, quick release the rest of the pressure.
Stir the contents of the pot, mix in half of the shredded mozzarella.
Top with the remaining mozzarella, and enjoy!
