Instant Pot Spaghetti “Bake”

 

Serves 8 (Serves 4)

1 1/2 pounds ground turkey (1 pound)

1tsp salt (3/4tsp)

1/2 tsp garlic powder (1/4tsp)

16oz box whole wheat noodles (8oz)

32oz jar spaghetti sauce (24oz jar)

2 cups water (1 cup)

8oz cream cheese (4oz)

1 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning (1tsp)

Using sauté, cook the ground turkey with the salt and garlic powder. Remove excess grease. Dump the box of noodles on top of the meat, add the jar of sauce, plus the water. (I usually use the jar to measure the water and get all the spaghetti sauce out of the jar.) Cut the cream cheese into about 8 pieces and place them on top kind of pushing them down into the sauce. 

Close the lid and cook for 8 minutes on manual. Release pressure when done. Stir, and serve! Top with Parmesan if you want. Good either way.
