Use a chopstir to break up the meat while cooking until almost brown and onions are tender.

Add 1 green pepper, 29 ounces of tomato sauce, 2 cans of diced tomatoes (with liquid), and 1 can of corn (with liquid).

Add 1/2 cup of brown sugar, 3 tablespoons of soy sauce, and 1 tablespoon of worcestershire sauce; mix well.

Add 1/2 pound of elbow macaroni and 1 cup of water to the pot.

Make sure the lid is on and the knob is set to sealing; push the pressure cook button and set the timer for 4 minutes.

Once the timer is done, let it sit for about 7 minutes before turning the knob to venting to release pressure.

Open the lid and serve, optionally adding salt, pepper, and cheese on top.
