Tomato Pasta Soup

This soup is comforting and yummy. I have served it up to my family, including my parents, and they all gave it the thumbs up. This is a recipe to make in the instant pot. The spiral wholemeal pasta keeps its shape under pressure, so I don't recommend using white pasta in this recipe.


Here is a link to the Instant Pot that I have (I have and recommend the 8 litre): Instant Pot 8 litre on Amazon (This is an affiliate link).
