Instant Pot® Black Bean Soup

  4.0 – 1 reviews  • Black Bean Soup Recipes

A more sour and acidic coleslaw than the creamy variety that is really excellent. You may prepare this up to two weeks before serving time, and it only gets better.

Great! The one thing I would change next time is the bell pepper. You have the orangish broth, red tomatoes, and yellow corn. It needs green. Next time I’d sub a green bell or even a jalapeno for the yellow bell. Overall great recipe though and no need to get hung up on the color of the bell. Use which one you like or have in the fridge.
