Instant Pot Low Carb Stuffed Pepper Soup

Instant Pot
Spray your Instant Pot with olive oil spray and set to saute. Remove sausage from casing; when the pot is hot, brown sausage until just about cooked through.
Add in onions and bell peppers and cook until fragrant. Add in garlic and cauliflower rice and cook for an additional minute.
Stir in tomatoes, tomato sauce, broth, basil, and oregano. Stir and place lid on the IP. Lock and set to manual/pressure cook for 7 minutes. Do a quick or natural release - both will work fine.
Once it’s safe to open the IP, give the soup a stir and add salt and pepper, if desired. Enjoy with cheese or without!
