1 pound Italian Sausage
1 pinch red pepper flakes
1 onion chopped
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon basil dried
1 teaspoon oregano dried
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon pepper
5 garlic cloves pressed or minced
4 ounces mushrooms sliced
1 cup carrots chopped up
28 ounces crushed tomatoes with juice 1 can
14 ounces tomato sauce 1 can
5 cups chicken broth (adjust for desired thickness)
9 lasagna noodles broke in small pieces, about 1.5 inches long (you can use any type of noodle)

Turn Instant Pot to SAUTE function. When the display reads "Hot," add the meat and red pepper flakes. Cook until you can't see any pink in the meat, stirring occasionally.
Add the onion, Italian seasoning, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Cook for a couple of minutes, until the onion starts to turn translucent, stirring occasionally.
Add the garlic and mushrooms, and cook for 1 minutes, stirring frequently.
Next add the tomatoes, tomato sauce, carrots, broth and pasta and mix well.
Put the lid on the Instant Pot, lock into place, and turn the knob to SEALING.
Turn off/Cancel the SAUTE function.
Press the MANUAL/PRESSURE COOK button and then set for 6 minutes.
When the cook time ends, do a quick release of the pressure. Make sure no sauce comes out with the steam, then turn the steam release knob fully.
When the pin in the lid drops down, open the lid. Stir the soup and separate any noodles that stuck together (sometimes I get a few). Then add the mozzarella cheeses. Stir well and let it melt. Then add the spinach and cottage cheese and stir again.
Serve in bowls with extra Parmesan cheese if desired.

Here are a couple things we recommend serving with your Instant Pot Lasagna Soup:

Garlic Bread – This one is a must! It’s the perfect way to soak up all that extra yummy sauce!
Side Salad – You don’t have to do anything fancy, but a salad really completes the meal.
Cheesecake – Why not make it a three course meal? You can never go wrong with cheesecake.
