Instant Pot AIP Minestrone Soup

Paleo On The Go

Instant Pot AIP Nomato Minestrone

Minestrone is yet another classic soup turned AIP by our chef using our very own Nomato Sauce. We added a little bacon to add a full rounded flavor, but you don't have to. You can add your favorite vegetables to the mix, make it your own. After cooking, the bright Nomato becomes a delicious rich color that mimics the color and savoriness that real tomato would add to the soup. I really liked the flavor of the added fresh spinach. Some Italian sausage would be perfect here!

  • Sauté olive oil and bacon in an instant pot

  • Add the onions, carrots, garlic and celery

  • Add the bone broth and all of the other ingredients, except spinach and parsley

  • Pour in POTG Nomato Sauce

  • Top with spices and set the pot to soup, on the “less” setting and run it for 20 minutes.

  • Stir in spinach and parsley and serve
