Bom Apetite!!
Notes
- **Please note that, some brands of marinara may be thicker than others. If that's the case, you may need to add an extra half a cup of water to the IP to avoid the burning warning.
- ***If you do get a burning warning, turn off the pan, and safely open it. Add the extra water, and try again.
