Instant Pot Beef Bean Soup

Instant Pot Beef Bean Soup

I‘ve been trying to incorporate more beans into my diet and have found that soup is the way I like them the best. They are especially good with rich beefy broth.  This Instant Pot Beef Bean Soup cooks relatively quickly and requires no pre-soaking. It is hearty, savory and very filling. I like to make a big pot of this at the beginning of the week and have it for dinner most of the week. It reheats quickly and is tastes better the longer it sits in the fridge. Often, that is my whole dinner. I used heirloom beans for this recipe but you are welcome to use regular supermarket navy beans.
