Notes
I have used Barilla Lasagne noodles in this recipe which has a stovetop cook time of 8 minutes. To pressure cook the noodles al dente, I reduce the stove cook time in half. Hence the pressure cook time used in this recipe is 4 minutes. Vegetarian Variation:To make vegetarian Lasagna Soup, simply skip the ground chicken and add 2 cups of diced zucchini, diced mushrooms, or mixed diced peppers instead. Replace chicken broth with vegetarian broth or just add water and adjust the salt accordingly.
