• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 1 pinch red pepper flakes
• 1 teaspoon herbes de Provence
• 2 medium carrots, peeled and sliced
• 1 medium parsnip, peeled and sliced

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®), add oil, and select High Saute function. Add carrots, celery, onion, and parsnip and saute until slightly soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in turkey broth. Add turkey, tomato paste, celery leaves, herbes de Provence, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes; stir to combine.

Step 2

Meanwhile, fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Stir in pasta and return to a boil. Cook pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, 7 to 9 minutes. Ladle pasta into bowls and top with soup.

Step 3

Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 5 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.

Step 4

Release pressure in short bursts using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.
