Equipment
Ingredients
- 16 ounces macaroni dried-not cooked
- 1.5 cups mayonnaise
- 14.5 ounce green peas canned-drained of all water
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon pepper
- 4 cups water
Instructions
- Pour water into Ninja Foodi liner.
- Pour in 1 pound of dried pasta a little salt- do not stir. Instead, “push” the pasta down so that it is covered with the water as much as possible.
- Close Ninja Foodi pressure cooking lid and move valve to “seal” position
- Pressure cook on high for 3 minutes. As a rule of thumb, you should cook the pasta based on this calculation: Look at the box, take the recommended time and cut it half and then subtract 2. For example, if the suggested cook time is 10 minutes, cut that in half to 5 and then subtract 2. This will leave you with 3. Cook for 3 minutes.
- Once timer beeps, quick release pressure and remove lid.
- Rinse pasta and let cool.
- Combine cooked macaroni, canned peas, mayonnaise, salt and pepper together in a large bowl. Refrigerate and serve.
