1/3 cup tomato sauce (or 2 Roma tomatoes, chopped)
1 cup pitted olives (see notes)
1 large carrot, chopped

3 TBSP lemon juice
1 TBSP lemon zest
2 TBSP butter
1 TBSP Italian seasoning
1 cup whole wheat uncooked orzo pasta (optional)

Instructions

Once done, quick release pressure.  Add in orzo and stir.  Replace cover and close valve.

Pressure cook on high for 3 minutes.  Allow pressure to naturally release.
