Ingredients
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound ground beef
1 pound ground spicy or mild Italian turkey sausage
1 medium yellow onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups beef broth
24 ounces jarred marinara sauce
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon fennel seeds, lightly crushed
8 ounces lasagna noodles, broken into bite-sized pieces
1 cup ricotta cheese for serving
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese for serving
1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped for garnish
Instructions
Set the Instant Pot to ‘Sauté’ mode and add the olive oil.
Add the ground beef, turkey sausage, and diced onion. Cook until the meat is browned and the onions are softened.
Add the minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and crushed fennel seeds, cooking for another minute until fragrant.
Pour in the marinara sauce and beef broth, stirring well to combine and scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
Add the broken lasagna noodles, ensuring they are submerged in the liquid.
Secure the lid, set to ‘Pressure Cook’ on high for 5 minutes.
Once the timer goes off, perform a quick release of the pressure.
Open the lid and stir the soup. If the pasta is not tender enough, let it sit for another minute in the residual heat.
Serve hot, ladling into bowls and topping with a dollop of ricotta, shredded mozzarella, and fresh basil.
Notes
Use turkey sausage to ensure this recipe is strictly pork-free. If you prefer a thinner soup, you can add an extra half cup of beef broth. Leftovers store well in an airtight container for up to 3 days, though the noodles will continue to absorb broth; add a splash of water when reheating.
