Vegetarian Instant Pot White Bean Soup: 5 Minute Recipe
This post may contain affiliate links. Please read our disclosure policy.
This vegetarian Instant Pot White Bean Soup is a pantry recipe packed with garden vegetables. It’s my favorite quick and easy healthy soup recipe, and it cooks in 5 minutes. Packed with vegetables, it is an easy choice for lunch or dinner.
Much like my favorite 15 Minute White Bean Soup recipe, this is similar but even quicker, if you can imagine that. I shake my head because seriously, they’re both super quick.
But this one seems even quicker. And some days, the Instant Pot just feels… easier.
One Monday afternoon, my son and husband began rummaging through the pantry and then the refrigerator. I could hear all kinds of racket over and above the tapping of my keyboard.
They made a mess. And they were “hangry” in every sense of the word.
This soup came from that roll-my-eyes experience. They needed filling, healthy food, and they needed it quickly.
It was so good — I had to share it with you! If you love nourishing meat-free bean recipes, try these black bean burgers next!
What to Serve with This Instant Pot White Bean Soup
While the soup is packed with vegetables, I like also to serve a green salad for fresh greens. Pictured with the soup is a wedge of our Traditional Brown Irish Soda Bread.
