Recipe Tips
This Instant Pot Pasta Fagioli Soup is a great way to use up any vegetables you have on hand. You can add mushrooms, zucchini, or spinach for a nutritional boost. You can also substitute the vegetable broth with chicken broth for a heartier soup.
For a creamier soup, you can add a can of diced tomatoes with green chilies. This will give the soup a bit of a kick. You can also add a can of red kidney beans for an added protein boost.
If you don’t have an Instant Pot, you can easily make this soup on the stovetop. Just follow the same instructions, but simmer the soup on low heat for 25 minutes. Be sure to stir the soup occasionally to prevent the pasta from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
