meatball pasta soup

This hearty soup is loaded with mini turkey meatball, zucchini, vegetables and ditalini pasta. I love to add a Parmesan cheese rind to my soup, my secret for extra flavor but it's totally optional!

Instant Pot Turkey Meatball and Ditalini Soup

For the meatballs:

turkey

tbsp grated Pecorino Romano cheese

crushed garlic

parsley

salt

Soup:

cooking spray

olive oil

onion

celery

carrot

garlic

chicken broth

basil leaves (plus optional more for garnish)

bay leaves

ditalini pasta (1 cup* (wheat or gluten-free))

zucchini (diced small)

Parmesan rind (optional)

parmesan cheese (optional

In a medium bowl combine turkey, breadcrumbs, pecorino, egg, garlic, parsley and salt and gently mix to combine.

Form into 30 meatballs, about 1 heaping tablespoon each.

Press saute in the Instant Pot and spray with oil.

Brown the meatballs in 2 to 3 batches, spraying each time. Set aside on a dish and clean the pot.

Heat the oil and add the onion, celery, carrots and garlic, cook until soft, about 4 minutes.

Add the tomatoes, Parmesan rind, basil, bay leaves and stir, return the meatballs to the pot.

Add the chicken broth, cover and cook high pressure 15 minutes.

Quick release and open the lid, add the pasta and zucchini and cook 4 minute more, quick release so the pasta doesn’t overcook.

Serve with grated cheese if desired and basil.
