Just a little prep time prior. This Italian sausage pasta recipe can be on the table in less than an hour and that includes bringing to pot up to pressure. If you do not have an Instant Pot, this recipe can be made on the stove as well. Basically, do the same thing as this recipe using a large saucepan. After that sausage has been browned on all sides, slice and let the sausage simmer in the sauce for about 45 minutes then add the cooked pasta, shredded cheese and enjoy.
