Ingredients

  • 1 pound mild Italian sausage
  • 2 bell peppers your choice of colors, diced
  • 1 large yellow onion diced
  • 2 teaspoons fresh diced garlic
  • 24 ounces marinara sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt

  • 8 ounces shredded cheese (provolone, cheddar, etc.)

Directions

  1. Turn your 6 quart or larger* Instant Pot to “sauté.” Add the sausage and cook for 3 minutes while breaking apart. Add the onion, bell peppers and garlic to the pot and sauté for an additional 5 minutes.
  2. Add the remaining ingredients and give them a quick stir. Place your lid on your Instant Pot and turn the vent to pressure. Manually set your pot to high pressure for 10 minutes.
  3. When the time is up, turn the vent to steam to quick release the pressure.
  4. Serve topped with shredded cheese.
