A quick and flavorful spaghetti sauce cooked in the Instant Pot, perfect for a convenient weeknight dinner.

Ingredients: 1 lb ground beef. 1 onion, finely chopped. 2 cloves garlic, minced. 1 can 28 oz crushed tomatoes. 1 can 14 oz diced tomatoes. 1 can 6 oz tomato paste. 1 cup water. 2 tsp dried oregano. 2 tsp dried basil. 1 tsp sugar. 1/2 tsp salt. 1/4 tsp black pepper. 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes optional. 1 bay leaf.

Instructions: The Instant Pot should be in "Saute" mode. Add chopped onion and minced garlic to the ground beef and brown it. Once the beef is browned, you may need to drain the extra fat. Tomato paste, water, oregano, basil, sugar, salt, black pepper, red pepper flakes if using, and bay leaf should all be added. Mix well. Set the Instant Pot lid to the "Sealing" position and cook for 15 minutes at high pressure on "Manual" or "Pressure Cook" mode. Once the food is done, quickly let the pressure out and carefully open the lid. Take out the bay leaf and mix the sauce around. If you need to, change the seasoning. Great! Put the spaghetti sauce on top of the cooked pasta and enjoy!
