The Instant Pot cooks beans so much faster which makes it perfect for making bean soup. This Two Bean Soup Recipe uses Red Beans and Pinto Beans and is perfect served with cornbread or rolls.
My dad always loved it when my mom served bean soup, cornbread and sweet tea for supper. It was one of his favorite meals to eat year round. Sometimes simple meals are the best!
It took me a few months after I purchased my Instant Pot to start using it. I was a little intimated by it. I remember the old pressure cooker my mom used and that one always scared me! I have this Instant Pot from Amazon and now I use it as much as my slow cooker.
