Instant Pot Pasta pinit

This Instant Pot Pasta is vegan, gluten free, and soy free. And guess what! It only takes 4 minutes (under pressure) to cook!

Can I use a different kind of pasta?

Yes, you can use a different kind of pasta, but I would stick to sedanini or pasta of a similar size, like penne or cavatappi. Spaghetti noodles will not cook correctly for this Instant Pot Pasta recipe. Lentil pasta also tends to hold up better in the Instant Pot, while other types of pasta may turn out mushy.
