Ingredients

  • ½ lb. lean ground beef
  • ½ lb. Italian sausage
  • ¼ cup onions diced
  • 1 tsp. sea salt
  • ½ tsp. black pepper
  • 1 tsp. fennel seeds
  • 1 Tbsp. garlic minced
  • 6 oz. tomato paste
  • 4 cups chicken broth low sodium
  • 15 oz. tomato sauce
  • 28 oz. crushed tomatoes
  • 1 tsp. dried basil
  • 1 tsp. Italian seasoning
  • 2 Tbsp. sugar
  • 9 oz. lasagna noodles
  • 8 oz. ricotta cheese
  • 1 tsp. fresh basil finely chopped
  • ¼ cup parmesan grated
  • 4 oz. mozzerella grated

Instructions

  • Using sauté setting - add ground beef, sausage, onions, fennel seeds, salt, and pepper to Instant Pot. Cook until meat is browned and fully cooked - about 5-7 minutes. Then add garlic and cook for about a minute or so.
  • Add tomato paste and cook out for about a minute. (Not absolutely necessary, but it helps get rid of that canned taste.) Then add chicken broth, tomato sauce, crushed tomatoes, dried basil, Italian seasoning, and sugar - mix well.
  • Add lasagna noodles (preferably standing up, not laying down). Lock lid and cook at high pressure for 2 minutes.
  • Meanwhile - mix ricotta cheese and fresh basil in a small bowl and set aside.
  • Once cook time is complete, allow pressure to release naturally for 5 minutes, then quick-release remaining pressure. Then gently mix.
  • Serve soup topped with parmesan, mozzarella, and ricotta mixture.
