fall soup recipe

Instant Pot Minestrone Soup is the perfect hearty meal to warm you up. This homemade recipe tastes just like the Olive Garden version and is loaded with healthy vegetables and hearty beans.

Instant Pot Minestrone Soup

onion (, about 1/3 cup, diced)

garlic (, minced)

carrot (, about 1 cup, chopped)

celery (,

basil

oregano

thyme

tomato paste

bay leaf

carton (, 4 cups low sodium vegetable broth)

dry uncooked small shell pasta

zucchini

beans

baby spinach (or kale) (, chopped (optional))

balsamic vinegar (,

Parmesan cheese (,

parsley (, finely chopped, for garnish (optional))

Instant Pot (, I have a 6 Quart DUO-Plus)

Press the SAUTE button on your instant pot and allow to heat up for 2 minutes. Add olive oil and saute onions and garlic for about 3 minutes, or until fragrant. Add the carrots, celery, basil, oregano, thyme, tomatoes, tomato paste, bay leaf, vegetable broth, water and dry pasta.

Press Cancel then close the lid. Press the MANUAL (older models) or PRESSURE COOK (newer models) button and set on HIGH for 2 minutes. Turn the valve to SEALING.

After the soup has finished cooking for the 2 minutes and the instant pot beeps, do a quick release by turning the valve to VENTING to release the pressure.

Once the pressure is released, open the lid and add zucchini, kidney beans and cannellinibeans. Press the SAUTE button and cook for another 5-6 minutes, or until the pasta and beans are tender and cooked. Stir in spinach (kale) and allow to sit until wilted (about 1 minute). Add more water as needed if you like a thinner soup.

Season with more salt and pepper as needed and stir in balsamic vinegar (if using) and serve warm with bread and top with Parmesan cheese and garnish with parsley if desired.

FOR THE INSTANT POT VERSION:

In a large heavy bottomed pot or dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium heat.

Add onions, garlic, carrots and celery and saute for about 4 minutes, or until vegetables are slightly softened.

Add basil, oregano, thyme and cook for an additional 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, tomato paste, bay leaf, vegetable broth, water, kidney beans and cannellini beans.

Bring soup to a boil, then reduce heat and allow to simmer for 20-25 minutes.

Stir in the dry pasta and zucchini and cook for another 10 minutes, or until pasta is tender and cooked. Stir in the spinach (kale) and allow to wilt (about 1-2 minutes). Add more water as needed if you like a thinner soup.

FOR THE STOVETOP VERSION:

A hearty and delicious vegetarian soup that is filling and nutritious. Ground nutmeg and apple give a sweet and warm taste to this amazing soup.

Creamy Butternut Squash and Apple Soup
