I love lasagna but HATE how much time they take especially if you don’t use the ready to bake noodles. It is definitely not the easiest recipe to accomplish on those busy weekday nights! That’s not the case with this Instant Pot Ravioli Lasagna Soup!
You can throw it all together and have dinner done in no time. Plus, you do not miss out on the flavor we all love from lasagna. Even our little family members love this recipe. When you get everyone to eat the same thing at dinner time, I always count that a win!

- Ground sausage

Equipment Needed
I know there are so many different versions and sizes of the Instant Pot now that it can make it hard to choose “the right one”. Well, I’d have to say that you will not go wrong with any of them! But, I have the Instant Pot LUX 6 Quart 6-in-1 Programmable Pressure Cooker. It’s basically 6 appliances in 1 – pressure cooker, rice cooker, saute, steamer, cake maker, and warmer. It is awesome!
For this recipe, you only need a few simple kitchen tools. We recommend using the following equipment:


How to Make Our Ravioli Lasagna Soup
- To begin, get out your Instant Pot and turn it on to the SAUTE function.
- After it gets hot add in the ground sausage and saute the meat for about 5 minutes making sure to break it up as you go.
- Then add in the diced onion and diced garlic to the sausage and continue to saute for another 5 minutes. When that is done, press CANCEL to turn off the SAUTE function.
- Next, add in the diced zucchini, diced green pepper, can of tomatoes, tomato paste, tomato sou, sugar, dried basil, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix everything together until it is well incorporated with the meat.
- Now, pour the beef broth over top of the ingredients in the Instant Pot and then the frozen ravioli on top of that.
- Be sure to not mix the ingredients at this point. You want to avoid any of the pasta from getting to the bottom of the Instant Pot and causing the BURN notice.
- Once you are done adding the ravioli, place the lid on and turn the valve to the SEALING position and press the MANUAL or PRESSURE COOK button and set the timer for 2 minutes.
- After the timer runs out, turn the valve to the VENTING position to do a quick release (AKA letting all the pressure out).
- Then, simply remove the top, stir everything up, serve it into bowls and top it with the freshly grated Parmesan cheese and fresh chopped basil and enjoy!


Recipe Notes
I know there are a lot of green thumbs around here so if you have a garden full of tomatoes you could always make your own crushed tomatoes to use for this recipe, plus store the rest for later! Take a look at this Crushed Tomatoes recipe from All She Cooks.
