  • 1 jar marinara sauce 25 ounces

  • In a medium size bowl mix meat mixture with 25 ounce jar of marinara (reserve ½ c for the top).
  • Next, using a round dish that fits within your Instant Pot (A springform pan with aluminum foil to catch any drippings works) layer half of your lasagna meat, mozzarella and ricotta cheese mixture repeating for a second time until no ingredients remain. Top with ½ c of reserved marinara sauce.
  • Place sling in Instant Pot over rack and pour in 1 cup of water.
  • Set dish in instant pot. Cover loosely with aluminum foil if desired to keep condensation from dripping on the lasagna.

Notes

Since so many comments noted that the lasagna burned in their pot, the recipe has changed to use a baking pan in the pot method rather than cook directly in the pot. 
However, the issue with burning can be if there isn’t enough liquid in the pot when cooking under pressure. So a “watery” sauce is what’s needed to keep the lasagna from burning if you don't want to use the separate pan method. Extra sauce should also prevent burning for those wanting to cook directly into the pot.
