If you’re the owner of an Instant Pot, you MUST (yeah kinda demanding) make this lasagna soup. It is soooooo good. It’s so good you may be tempted to eat more than one bowl. This lasagna soup can actually be made without the Instant Pot but I like doing everything in one pot an I love even more that as soon as it comes to pressure I need to do nothing besides go watch TV or play with the little. Yeah, dishes weren’t part of that.
Ready to come along and make your soup with me? Here’s what I did.
Push the saute button on the Instant Pot and allow for the inner pot to become hot. When the screen reads HOT, add in one chopped onion and mild Italian sausage. When the sausage and onions are about done which will take about 5 minutes, add in your garlic, oregano and tomato paste.
You’re almost done and ready to close the lid. But first, add your chicken broth, sauce and pieces of uncooked lasagna.
Close the lid, seal the valve and choose manual and adjust the time to 8 minutes. If you’d like your noodles to be a bit more al dente you can choose 6 minutes instead.
Allow for a 5 minutes natural release. That means after 5 minutes has passed after the cycle being finished, you can release any remaining pressure in the pot. Add in basil, cream and Parmesan cheese. Stir together and serve. It’s THAT easy and SO delicious.
I served with fresh basil, a dollop of ricotta and some Parmesan cheese.

I truly appreciate this article. Great.
Oven ready lasagna noodles or other?
Sorry for the delay. I used the basic long lasagna noodles. Not the “no boil ones”
