How to make this EASY Instant Pot Creamy Spaghetti:

Well, we have a small size Instant Pot. I am thinking I would just half (1/2) all the ingredients. That should serve 3. Does that all sound about right? Thank you for your help!
Yes, just cut the recipe in half.
This was yummy! I have been scared to make pasta in the instant pot, never wanted to risk getting soggy
noodles. Turned out great! Your recipes are always delicious! Thanks!
I made this for the first time tonight. It was really good. I did make a couple tweaks though. I didn’t have cream cheese, so I substituted 1/2 cup of ricotta and added in a bit of onion powder & minced garlic. This was the best of the instant pot spaghetti recipes I’ve tried.
