Steps:
- Set the Instant-Pot to sauté. Add the ground beef and cook for 5-6 minutes, until no longer pink. Add the onion, garlic, salt, oregano, and red pepper flakes and cook for 3-4 minutes more, until the onions are translucent. Add the tomato sauce and stir to combine, then carefully remove the insert from the Instant-Pot. Let cool for 5 minutes, then transfer the tomato sauce to a bowl and wash and dry the insert.
- In a medium bowl, combine the ricotta, 1 cup (100 G) of mozzarella, ½ cup (55 G) of Parmesan, the parsley, and egg. Mix well.
- Add the olive oil to a 7-inch (17 cm) springform pan and brush in an even layer over the bottom.
- Arrange a layer of lasagna noodles on the bottom of the pan, breaking the noodles to fit if necessary. Top with a layer of sauce, then half of the ricotta mixture. Add another layer of noodles, sauce, and the rest of the ricotta. Finish with the remaining noodles and sauce. Cover the pan tightly with foil.
- Return the insert to the Instant-Pot and pour in the water. Place pan with the lasagna on a steamer rack trivet and carefully lower into the pot. Cover with the lid and twist to lock. Turn the steam valve to "sealing". Set to high pressure and cook for 24 minutes (it will take about 5 minutes to heat and pressurize).
- Once the cook time is finished, vent naturally for 15 minutes, then turn the quick release steam valve to "venting" and when the float valve has fully dropped, open the pressure cooker and carefully lift out the lasagna.
- Remove the foil and sprinkle top of the lasagna with the remaining ½ cup (50 G) mozzarella and ¼ cup (25 G) Parmesan.
- Turn the broiler to high. Broil the lasagna for 2-4 minutes, until the cheese on top is melted and golden brown.
- Let the lasagna cool for 10 minutes, then place on a serving plate and carefully release the springform. Slice and serve.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Turn on a multi-cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and the select Saute function. Heat olive oil; add ground beef and salt. Cook, breaking it into clumps with a spatula, until thoroughly browned, about 6 minutes. Transfer beef to a bowl. Wash the pot and return it to the machine.
- Pour 1 1/2 cup water into the pot. Set the metal trivet inside.
- Arrange lasagna pieces over the bottom of a 6-inch springform pan. Ladle 1/3 the tomato sauce on top; add 1/3 of the cooked beef and 1/3 of the fresh spinach. Dollop 1/2 the mozzarella cheese on top. Repeat layers using 1/2 the goat cheese. Repeat once more, finishing with remaining mozzarella and goat cheese on top.
- Tent the top of the lasagna loosely with aluminum foil. Lower it gently onto the trivet. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 20 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build. Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, 10 to 40 minutes. Unlock and remove lid.
- Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
- Transfer the springform pan carefully to a baking sheet. Broil until cheese on top is lightly browned and bubbling, about 5 minutes.

Steps:
- Push SAUTE button on the Instant Pot. Once it is hot (it will only take a few minutes), cook and stir Italian sausage until brown. (You could also do this step on the stove top, but it's just as easy to do it in the Instant Pot)
- Add onions and mushrooms; saute until onions are clear.
- Stir in spaghetti sauce, and heat through. Pour mixture into a bowl and set aside. Rinse out your pot.
- In a medium size bowl, combine cottage cheese, ricotta cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, and eggs.
- Spread a thin layer of the meat sauce in the bottom of a round 7-Inch Springform pan.
- Layer with 1/2 of the uncooked lasagna noodles, breaking the noodles so they cover all the sauce. Then add 1/2 of cheese mixture, 3/4 cup mozzarella cheese, and 1/2 of the meat sauce. Continue layering until all ingredients are used or until your springform pan is filled to the top.
- Cover pan with aluminum foil.
- Place a trivet in the bottom of the Instant Pot. Add 1 cup of water on top of the trivet. Gently place your foil wrapped lasagna on top of the trivet.
- Push the PRESSURE COOK or MANUAL and set the timer for 24 minutes.
- When it is done, let it release on its own for a few minutes then turn the knob to VENTING to release all of the pressure.
- When the pressure is out, remove the lid and take out the lasagna.
- Add 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese and broil in the oven for 2 minutes until the cheese it bubbly on top.

Tips:
- Use fresh lasagna noodles for the best results. If you use dried noodles, be sure to cook them al dente according to the package directions before assembling the lasagna.
- To make the lasagna more flavorful, use a variety of cheeses. A good combination is mozzarella, ricotta, and Parmesan.
- If you don't have a springform pan, you can use a 9x13 inch baking dish. Just be sure to grease the dish well so the lasagna doesn't stick.
- To prevent the lasagna from drying out, cover it with foil before baking. Remove the foil during the last 15 minutes of baking so the top of the lasagna can brown.
- Let the lasagna rest for at least 15 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the lasagna to set.
Conclusion:
Instant Pot lasagna is a delicious and easy meal that can be made in a fraction of the time it takes to make traditional lasagna. With a few simple tips, you can make a perfect lasagna every time. So next time you're short on time, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
