Instant Pot Lasagna Soup

Italian Night with Instant Pot Lasagna Soup!

Do you love the Instant Pot as much as I do? How about lasagna? Love that too? I would have never thought I would love lasagna soup – but, oh my!! It’s so good 😋 and so perfect for fall and because I used red lentil pasta, I didn’t even feel too bad about the carbs! ⠀

I grew up eating A LOT of pasta – lasagna, stuffed shells, spaghetti and meatballs – you name it! I really don’t eat much pasta these days having made the switch to cleaner eating, but with a couple of easy swaps, I totally enjoyed this comforting soup that brought back all the feels from my childhood days around my Italian grandmother’s tables!

Ingredients

  • Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 lb lean ground meat (turkey/beef)
  • 3 cloves of garlic
  • 1 onion diced

Steps

  • Set the Instant Pot to sauté and add the oil. Once warm, add in the ground meat, onions, and garlic. Cook until brown.
  • Then turn off the Instant Pot.
  • Add all of the other ingredients, except the cheese.
  • Seal the lid and turn set the Instant Pot to the manual setting for 5 minutes. Wait for the pot to come to pressure and cook for the 5 minutes.
  • When the pot beeps, do a quick release to release the pressure and steam.
  • Serve and top with ricotta and mozzarella.
