• Add 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil to your Instant Pot and turn on the saute function. When the olive oil is fragrant, add white onion, red pepper, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt. Saute for 4-5 minutes. Once the onion turns translucent, add in fresh spinach and saute for an additional 1-2 minutes in order to wilt the spinach.
