Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs ground beef lean
- 1 onion diced
- 2 tsp oregano dried
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 5 cloves garlic diced or crushed
- 1-2 carrot diced or chopped roughly
- 1 bell pepper diced
- 796ml/26 fl oz crushed tomatoes can
- 15 oz tomato paste
- 4 cups water more if needed, with better than bouillon chicken stock
- 1.5 cups lentils dried
- 9 lasagna noodle broken up
- 2 cups spinach
- 2 cups ricotta cheese
To Garnish
- Parmesan Cheese
- parsley or basil leaves
Instructions
- Start by pressing the sauté button on your Instant Pot and brown the lean ground beef.
- Once browned, place in the onions, dried oregano, crushed red pepper flakes, and pepper. Stir.
- Add in the garlic and keep stirring. Next, add the carrots and red pepper.
- Add the tomato paste and crushed tomatoes. Then add 3.5 to 4 cups of water + better than bouillon chicken stock OR 3.5 to 4 cups of chicken stock/broth. It will be thicker if you use 3.5 cups (how I prefer it). If you add 4 cups, make sure you’re not overfilling the Instant Pot or it will not come up to pressure.
- Add in the dried lentils and stir it for 5 minutes (making sure nothing is stuck on the bottom!). In-between stirring, start breaking up the pieces of lasagna noodles. If you want bigger pieces of noodles in your soup, break them in thirds, if you want more bite sized pieces of noodles, break each noodle into 4 pieces.
- After you’ve add your noodles in, make sure they are fully covered by the soup or they will get crunchy and weird. Note: do NOT stir the noodles in. Place them on top and gently pat them into the sauce, add more broth if needed to cover the noodles.
- Put the lid on, turn off the sauté function, turn the steam release knob to sealing, and turn on the pressure cook/manual button to 20 minutes. If you are skipping the lentils, 6 minutes should be enough!
- When your Instant Pot beeps, your Lasagna Soup is almost done! Do a quick release (be careful) before opening the lid and giving the soup a good stir.
- Finally, add in your spinach and ricotta cheese. You can add your parmesan cheese now or you can do it like I did and add it on top when serving.
