Directions
Turn Ninja Foodi onto saute
When heated, add oil, onion, carrots, and celery. Stir until the onions are slightly softened, about 2-3 minutes.
Add broth and use a spatula to scrape up any brown bits in the bottom of the Ninja Pot.
Add remaining ingredients except for the spinach & basil if using. Put the lid on the Ninja Pot and set it to MANUAL (or PRESSURE COOK) on HIGH pressure for 4 minutes.
When the cooking time is done, quick release the pressure and open the lid. Stir in spinach and let rest 5-10 minutes.
Remove the bay leaves and discard.
Serve with shredded parmesan cheese and fresh basil or parsley if desired.
