Best Chunky Instant Pot Vegan Soup Recipe

Best Pressure Cooker Vegan Soup

With Chunky Vegetables 

My chunky Instant Pot vegan soup recipe is just perfect, when you want the good vibes that come along with comfort food. 

It is a simple vegetarian soup that is big on flavor and, of course, the Instant Pot makes it quick and easy. 

As you can see, I like big chunks in my bowl of soup.

If you are like my mother, you will want to dice the veggies into smaller bits.

Either way, this soup is delicious and nourishing. 

Kids and adults will enjoy eating it for lunch or dinner. 

And, if you happen to have leftover, it can be refrigerated or frozen to finish up later. 

The chunky vegetable soup is good, when prepared exactly as the recipe is written. 

However, it is a flexible recipe, so you can adjust it to suit your personal taste and to use the veggies you have on hand. 

It is fine to leave out an ingredient or add extra of a favorite, but you’ll want to follow the directions as to how and when to add each ingredient for the proper cook. 

The potatoes and tomatoes should be added after the saute is complete. 

Chopped kale is added after the pressure cooking, so that it will be firm and not mushy. 

Lastly, the lime juice is added at the end to brighten up the flavors of the soup. 

Enjoy!
