Ingredients
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

  • 7.26 oz Penne
  • 7 broccoli florets
  • ½ tsp sugar

Instructions
  • Select Sauté, More/High.
  • When the unit is hot, add olive oil to the pot.

  • Add onions and garlic.
  • Sauté for a few minutes until onions become translucent.

  • Add parmesan cheese and stir.
  • Cover the top of the pasta with mozzarella cheese.
  • Carefully remove the pressure-cooking plate from the lid. Close the lid.
