Instructions

  1. On the saute setting, cook ground beef and onion until browned. Break up the meat as it cooks.
  2. Once the beef is cooked, turn off the sauté setting. Drain off any excess grease and make sure that there are not any pieces stuck to the bottom of the instant pot insert.
  3. Mix in crushed tomatoes, minced garlic, salt, Italian seasoning and beef broth. Stir to combine all the ingredients together.
  4. Stir in the pasta. 
  5. Set the pressure for 5 minutes.
  6. Add the lid and set to sealing setting. Pressure cook on high for 3 minutes. Do a quick release to release the pressure. Make sure to release the pressure immediately after the cook time so that the pasta does not get over cooked.
  7. In a small bowl, stir together the ricotta cheese and parmesan cheese. Stir in the ricotta mixture into the ingredients in the instant pot.
  8. Top with the mozzarella cheese. Cover (but do not turn back on) and allow the cheese to melt for about 5 minutes. 
  9. Serve and enjoy

Notes

  • You can use 1/2 ground beef and 1/2 sausage to change up the flavor if you prefer. 
  • *Refrigerate any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
