Ingredients

½ cup chopped onion
2 (5 ounce) cans tuna, drained
20 ounces vegetable penne pasta (such as Birds Eye® Steamfresh® Veggie Made™)
4 wedges spreadable light Swiss cheese (such as The Laughing Cow®)
5 ⅓ ounces low-fat cottage cheese (such as Muuna®)
1 (1 ounce) package dry ranch dressing mix (such as Hidden Valley Ranch®)
2 slices fully cooked chicken bacon (such as Country Archer®)
¼ cup beef broth

Steps:

Layer onion, tuna, pasta, Swiss cheese, cottage cheese, ranch dressing mix, bacon, and beef broth, in that order, in a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®). Close and lock the lid. Select low pressure according to manufacturer's instructions with zero cooking time. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, 6 to 8 minutes, depending on desired pasta firmness. Release remaining pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Stir and serve.
