Stuffed Shells are a family favorite. Creamy ricotta, sauteed spinach, gooey mozzarella… all stuffed into pasta. Plus, it’s made in the Instant Pot to make your next dinner so much easier.
Cook the spinach - Turn the pot to SAUTE. Add olive oil to the pot, then add the spinach. Saute until it wilts all the way down. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
01
Make the filling: Mix ricotta, 1 cup mozzarella, parmesan, garlic, egg, salt, pepper, and spinach.
02
Fill the Shells: Use a spoon to scoop into the uncooked shells.Once all shells are filled, spray the liner of the Instant Pot with nonstick spray.
03
Add the stuffed shells, stacking on top of one another if necessary. Pour the broth over the shells.
04
Add marinara sauce. If you need more marinara sauce to cover the shells completely, you can use more. Any shells not covered by liquid will not cook correctly and will come out hard.
05
Put the lid on the Instant Pot and set the pressure to HIGH for 9 minutes.
06
Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of mozzarella cheese on top of the shells.
