Instant Pot Lasagna Soup

Instant pot lasagna soup is exactly what you would think of when you say it. A hearty soup with all the components of a delicious lasagna deconstructed and turned into a soup. As if lasagna wasn’t already comforting enough, right?! My favorite part about the soup is the delicious ricotta-based cheese mixture that you dollop on top of the soup. The warmth from the soup helps it melt right in and make it extra creamy and delicious!

When I got the idea to make this soup I was thinking about making a more complex and time-consuming dish into something quick and just as delicious. I love making a big pan of lasagna from scratch, it’s just so satisfying to make something that’s a little time-consuming and yields such a delicious result. It’s all the love I put into it, really, that makes it so special. However, let me be honest, I don’t have the time to do that very often when I work a full time job and need to get dinner on the table fairly quickly. Plug in this instant pot lasagna soup. All the goods from a traditional lasagna, (and more!), turned into one easy and quick meal.

Instant pot with lasagna soup ingredients. Pasta, Spinach, parsley, pasta sauce, sausage.

All you need is your instant pot and some basic lasagna ingredients like sausage, ground beef, pasta sauce, pasta, some cheese, and broth. I like to sneak veggies in wherever I can for my husband, (yup, just like you would need to for a child!), so I add chopped spinach as well. Use any kind of pasta you’d like, no pasta shape or size is discriminated here! However, to get a traditional lasagna pasta feel you can use broken up lasagna sheets or Campanelle pasta which is curled like the edges of lasagna sheets can be. The ricotta-based cheese mixture is definitely the cherry on top. So simple made with only ricotta cheese, a blend of shredded parmesan and mozzarella, and parsley. It makes for the perfect way to top this soup, making it even more comforting and delicious. As I mentioned before, I love how the warmth of the soup makes it melt right into it creating a creamy, cheesy mixture. So dang good!!
