3 Bean Vegetable Soup (Vegan, Gluten Free)

Melissa King Recipes, Soups

It’s been freezing here in Dallas.  The perfect time to make this 3 Bean Vegetable Soup.  This soup is easy to make, and budget friendly too!

I made mine in the Instant Pot, so it only took 30 minutes.  Seriously!  It’s the best gadget ever.  I know not everyone has an instant pot, so I will write directions to make this is in the slow cooker as well.

  2. I'm not sure that it's safe to cook dry kidney beans in a crock pot. Kidney beans have a toxin that needs to be neutralized by cooking at a full rolling boil for at least 5 minutes.

    1. If you are using a crock pot, you have to soak all the beans overnight prior to using. I mention that in the instructions. You only put them in dry if you have a pressure cooker, like an Instant Pot. :)

  3. I made this today but tweaked it a bit. I added tomatoes and some potatoes. It was absolutely delicious! Everyone loved it. Will definitely make it again.

  6. Melissa I just finished making this. Used my instant pot for the first time. Some beans are still a little too hard. What do I do?

  7. HI. This looks delicious. I'm planning on making it this week. Do you think I can use chicken broth instead of vegetable broth? The simple reason is that that's what I have in my fridge. Thanks, Zsuzsi

  8. When you do a natural release do you turn the pot off or leave it on keep warm? I kept it on keep warm and the gave up after 20 minutes and did a quick release. Soup tastes great though!

  12. Made this for myself and my husband. He wasn’t sure about “no meat” but said he didn’t miss it at all because it was so hearty. He said we could have this once a week! That’s a home run in my house!
