Awesome Instant Pot 15 Bean and Vegetable Soup

I love this awesome bean and vegetable soup. It is one of my favorites.

Up until now, I had been making bean and vegetable soup in the slow cooker. Most of the time, though, using dried beans just didn’t work out well with my schedule.

That was until I found this recipe and video of Six Sisters’ Stuff on YouTube. While I grabbed the recipe from them, I of course changed and altered it to our tastes.

One thing about bean and vegetable soup is that you can make it into whatever works for you. If you don’t like something, take it out. If you prefer it a different way, there’s a good chance that it will turn out great.

For a long time I didn’t realize just how easy it was to make soup. I know, if you cook much that probably sounds funny, but it was true. Once I started doing it, I found how easy it was.

In the Instant Pot, I love the taste and flavor of anything we cook. This bean and vegetable soup is no different. Plus, I can use dried beans without soaking them overnight. That is a major plus to me in making soup from scratch.

Here’s the recipe. Remember that you can make it any way you want. This is my preferred method at the moment.

Costs And Servings

We found that this soup prepared this way cost around $10.69 in current prices for our area. The bean and vegetable soup yielded about 8 servings or maybe a little more than that.

Whatever soup we have leftover from a few nights of eating, we freeze flat in quart freezer bags so we can pull them out at any time for a quick meal or lunch.
