This keto Instant Pot Cheesy Cabbage Soup is packed full of Italian flavors!
The Instant Pot creates the soup base with just the juices from the vegetables, no broth required. A quick sauté of the sausage with the peppers, onion, and garlic pull out the flavor from the browned meat and vegetables. After that all you have to do is add the remaining ingredients to the pot and let it do its magic. Easy as that. This is a truly great low carb soup.
If you want to use a slow cooker instead of a pressure cooker, brown the onion, garlic and sausages in a greased pan and then transfer to a preheated crockpot. Cook for 4-6 hours on low or 2-3 hours on high.
