Instant Pot (Tomato Based) Ham and Bean Soup

Chances are many of you have leftover ham that you’ll be wanting to use up this week. I have a healthy instant pot ham and bean soup recipe that you’ll want to use to get back on track after all that sugar. I know I ate way too many Cadbury mini eggs, macaroon nests and even some carrot cake.

This ham and bean soup is a bit different from many other ham and bean soups. It is tomato based instead of cream based and has lots of acidic flavor because of the crushed tomatoes and the lemon juice. I also opted to use canned beans instead of dried beans just to make it a little bit quicker to cook.

What Instant Pot/Slow Cooker Did You Use?

For this Instant Pot (Tomato Based) Ham and Bean Soup recipe I used this Instant Pot IP-LUX60 V3 Programmable Electric Pressure Cooker. It’s 6 quarts, so the same size as most slow cookers. It cost me around $80 on Amazon. When I made a similar recipe in the slow cooker I used this 6 quart KitchenAid Slow Cooker.
