Tips

  • Alternate cooking without an Instant Pot: Add olive oil to a large stockpot over medium heat. Stir in garlic, celery, and carrots. Saute vegetables until tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in vegetable broth, diced tomatoes, salt, pepper, oregano, onion powder, and garlic powder. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to a simmer. Stir in uncooked pasta and zucchini. Cook for 10 minutes. Stir in corn kernels and chard and cook an additional 3 to 5 minutes, or until greens are tender. Divide soup into bowls and garnish with fresh basil. Enjoy!
