Instant Pot® Lasagna Soup

Ever wondered what to do with that last little bit of marinara sauce or those broken lasagna noodles? Well, I’ve got you covered! This soup has all of the flavors of lasagna without all of the hours in the kitchen. I’ve made it with fairly simple ingredients but feel free to add ground fennel seeds or herbs.

Step: 1

Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Add sausage and ground beef to the pot and until browned, about 5 minutes. Drain and discard grease and set meat aside. Add olive oil and swirl to insure the bottom of the pot is evenly coated. Add onions and cook until just soft, but not brown, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook until just fragrant, about 1 minute.

Step: 2

Pour in chicken broth and deglaze the pot, scraping up the brown bits from the bottom. Pour in marinara sauce. Add meat mixture and season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine. Add lasagna noodles, making sure that they are completely submerged in sauce. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer’s instructions; set timer for 3 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.

Step: 3

Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer’s instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Taste and adjust salt, if necessary. Ladle into bowls and top each with 1 teaspoon Parmesan cheese.

The word “stew” can refer to both a food and a cooking method. Stewing involves not fast cooking chunks of meat, raw fruit or beans in a tastefull water based . It’s similar to braising, but it does have a few piece of differences. The meat is chopped into smaller pieces instead of being processing menu whole , and the liquid all of it covers the essential in a stew as different to a braise’s halfway full . When meat or raw fruit are cooked using this method, the resulting dish is called stew.

Stew has a reputation for making a rib-sticking eating process that comfortable you up on a cold , winter day. It’s true ; a bowl of classic beef stew can make warming properties , but stew’s comfort factor more than a way beyond preserving you from the cold . It’s all about those tender chunks of meat and vegetables, swimming in a thick, ultra-rich gravy. The more they come together make the ultimate comfort food, no matter the weather.
