Ingredients
- 1 TBSP extra virgin olive oil
- ½ lb ground Italian sausage mild or hot
- 1 green bell pepper seeded and diced
- 1 cup chopped mushrooms
- ⅓ cup diced red onion
- ½ tsp dried oregano
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp pepper
- ¼ tsp crushed red pepper flakes
- 14.5 oz can fire roasted diced tomatoes
- 1 cup dried orzo
- 2 ⅓ cups water
- 1 handful fresh chopped spinach
- 1/3-1/2 cup Grated Parmesan cheese for topping
- 1-2 oz chopped pepperoni slices for topping
OPTIONAL EXTRAS
- spaghetti sauce (for swirling in at the end - see recipe)
- grated mozzarella for topping
- fresh diced tomatoes for an optional garnish
- fresh basil for an optional garnish
Instructions
- Set Instant Pot to sauté. Once hot, add the oil. Sauté ground sausage, breaking into small pieces as you cook, approx. 4 minutes.
- Mix in bell pepper, mushrooms, and red onion. Sauté for an additional 4-5 minutes.
- Season with salt, pepper, red pepper flakes, and oregano. Stir to combine and select CANCEL/OFF on the Instant Pot to stop the sauté function.
- Add fire-roasted tomatoes, water, and orzo. Stir to combine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot (to prevent the auto-shutoff/burn feature from triggering).
- Secure lid with the steam vent in the sealed position. Cook on MANUAL at HIGH pressure for 4 minutes. When the timer sounds, carefully quick relsease the pressure, standing back from the steam. Remove lid (with caution) once unlocked and stir the pasta. The sauc will thicken a little as it cools.
- For a thicker/saucier pasta - swirl in some spaghetti sauce before spooning into bowls. I like it thick so I add this optional extra. Mix in some spinach and top with parmesan cheese and chopped pepperoni plus choice of optional extras from the list above. Enjoy!
