Spaghetti and Meatballs on plate with asparagusImagine only one pot to clean:) This recipe uses frozen meatballs. I had a package I bought at the supermarket. The next time I make meatballs, I will freeze enough for this recipe. Great for the person on the go. The pressure cooker infuses the meat and pasta with the sauce. Absolutely delicious.

  10. Push down the pasta, so it is covered with water as much as possible.
  11. Lock the lid, and bring to pressure. Cook at high pressure for 3 minutes, and do a 5 minute natural release.
