In reply to Rivka Marcus. That is fabulous! I actually made this with lentils a few weeks ago as the "meat" My family devoured that version as well.

I substituted impossible burger for th meat. I also used regular lasagna noodles. I needed 33 minutes pressure. My husband and I think this was the absolute best lasagna we have ever eaten!

This is the first recipe I was able to make successfully in my Instant Pot (although I’m still working on making it come out a little less watery). It’s delish! And it solves that hankering I get for lasagna that’s so hard to fill. I’m very picky about how my lasagna tastes and this hit it on the first try. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Looks delicious! Can this be made GF with palmini strips or other GF options?

In reply to Bonnie. Is it ok to use the no boil lasagna?

Really good, cut the cheese in half, made sure none of the noodles overlapped, otherwise exactly as written.

In reply to Janet Penn. Hi Janet. It is not necessary to cover in foil. However, it will help keep condensation off the lasagna. If you cover in foil, add 10 minutes to the cooking time.

In reply to Kristen Chidsey. Bit confused. Your video does not show covering with foil. Nor is it mentioned in the written recipe. However, in one of the posted responses you asked if the foil covering was remembered. Should lasagna be covered for cooking?

In reply to Carmen. I am so glad you enjoyed!! As for the water, it sounds like your Instant Pot may not have been sealed--it should not leak or lose liquid. So I would double-check that next time--it is an easy mistake to make :)

I had to turn it off and add more water in the bottom. But overall very good.

In reply to Christine. Hi Christine! There are a couple of reasons this may have happened. Did you forget to cover with foil? Did you use cottage cheese instead of ricotta? (that is fine, but can make it more watery) And you may have simply used too much tomato sauce.

I’m just beginning to learn how to use an instant pot so probably a user error but mine turned out very watery. It tastes good over all and everything was cooked just not sure why so liquidy; definitely couldn’t take it out of the form.

If you’re wondering what is the best IP lasagna recipe, please know that this is it. Also, it freezes beautifully. Thanks for sharing this recipe, Mindfull Mom!

In reply to Judy Schaff. I am so glad you enjoyed it. It may have been where the noodles overlapped that they were undercooked. I would either add 3-5 minutes cook time or be careful to not overlap as much :)

I made this lasagna recipe and it turned out incredibly well. Some spots had noodles that were under cooked. But overall, very good and my family liked it.

In reply to Alice Shockley. Hi Alice! Don't give up hope. Because you used a really thick sauce there was not enough liquid for the oven ready noodles. They need a bit thinner sauce so that they can absorb some liquid and cook fully. This would have happened in the oven as well as the instant pot. To remedy this, either use regular pre-cooked lasagna noodles or thinner sauce.
