This hearty Meatball Tortellini Soup made in the pressure cooker is filled with tender beef and pork meatballs, soft tortellini, and rich savory broth—ready in under an hour for a cozy comforting meal.
Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add diced carrots, celery, and half of the onion. Sauté until soft, about 5-7 minutes.
In a bowl, combine ground beef, pork, remaining onion, beaten egg, panko breadcrumbs, minced garlic, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined.
Form mixture into small 1-inch meatballs.
Add chicken stock to the pot and bring to a boil.
Carefully drop in the meatballs. Reduce heat and simmer for 10-12 minutes.
Add tortellini and cook for 5-7 minutes until tender.
Add chopped spinach and Italian seasoning. Simmer for 2 more minutes. Taste and adjust salt and pepper.
Ladle soup into bowls and serve warm.
