    Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to the manufacturer's instructions; set the timer for 3 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for the pressure to build.

  3. 3

    Carefully release the pressure using the quick-release method according to the manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Add spinach, Italian herbs, and rosemary; stir until the spinach has wilted. Ladle the minestrone into bowls and top with freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
