Ingredients
- 2 small onions chopped
- 2 carrots diced
- 2 talks celery diced
- 2 zucchini diced
- 1 bell pepper cored and diced
- 1 can tomato juice 19 ounces
- 1 can diced tomatoes 28 ounces
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 1/2 cup small pasta shells, elbows or ditalini
- 1 tablespoon dry parsley
- ½ tablespoon oregano
- 1 bay leaf
- salt and pepper to taste
Optional
- 1 can cannellini or kidney beans rinsed and drained
- 2 cups baby spinach
- fresh parsley or basil for garnishing
Instructions
- Dice the onion, carrots, celery, zucchini, and bell pepper.
- Add the diced veggies to the pressure cooker, along with tomato juice, diced tomatoes, broth, pasta, parsley, oregano and bay leaf.
- Put the lid on and make sure the sealing ring is in and the valve is closed.
- Set the pressure cooker for Manual, high pressure, for 10 minutes. It will take 10-15 minutes for the soup to reach pressure.
- When the cooking time is over do a quick release.
- Open the lid carefully. Taste the soup and add salt and pepper to taste.
- If you want to add beans or spinach add them now, put the lid back on and wait 5 minutes.
- Or just stir in the fresh herbs and serve with crusty bread.
Notes
- Buy pre-diced mirepoix, consisting of onions, carrots and celery to cut prep time.
- Vegetable broths vary widely in their sodium content, so I suggest tasting and adding salt after pressure cooking.
- Vary the vegetables in the soup based on what you have in the refrigerator.
- Sprinkle the soup with Parmesan if you don't care about it being vegan.
