Step 1
To Freeze and Cook Later
Label your freezer bag with the name of the recipe, cooking instructions, and “use-by” date. (Three months from when you prepped the meal.)
Add all ingredients except pasta,water, diced tomatoes, and feta to the freezer bag.
Carefully remove as much air as possible, seal and freeze for up to three months.
To Cook on Stovetop
Heat a large skillet over medium high heat.
Add the contents of the freezer bag to the skillet along with the water, diced tomatoes and pasta and bring to a boil.
Reduce the heat to simmer. Cook, covered, stirring frequently until the pasta is al dente, about 10 minutes.
Lower the flame, add the feta cheese, and stir until combined and sauce has thickened.
To Cook in Instant Pot
Add the pasta to the Instant Pot, then the contents of the freezer bag, and then the water and diced tomatoes on top.
Pressure cook 5 minutes.
Quick release.
Open pot and stir pasta.
Change function to sauté, add feta cheese, stirring all the while, allowing sauce to thicken and pasta to absorb the liquid.
