Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 20 ounces 15 BEAN SOUP Mix
- 1 (15 oz).can fire roasted diced tomatoes
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 Tablespoon Cajun seasoning
- ½ cup celery diced
- 1 medium onion diced
- 6 cup Low sodium Broth or water
- ⅛ teaspoon Salt and black pepper adjust to taste
- 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
- ¼ cup Fresh basil or Parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Wash, rinse and sort through the beans. Add them to the pressure cooker steel insert along with the vegetable broth or water. Add all ingredients in the pot except lemon juice and salt, pepper. Mix well.
- Put on the lid and set the valve to "sealing." Set the pressure cooker to MANUAL "high pressure" for 40 minutes.
- Once the cooker has reached pressure and cooked for 40 minutes, allow the pressure to release naturally for about 10 minutes. After that, release leftover pressure by turning the valve to venting.
- Remove the lid carefully and stir in the lemon juice, salt and black pepper, Taste and add more seasoning if needed.
- Stir well and let it sit for 5 minutes so that flavors mend together. Mash the beans little bit once the soup is cooked and then simmer for few minutes if you like thicker soup.
- Using a ladle, pour the soup in the serving containers. Sprinkle with fresh basil or parsley as desired. Serve hot. Bon appetit!!
Notes
Soaking the beans is optional. I have made this soup both ways. If you can, do soak the beans overnight. However, it's not necessary. Adjust the cooking time depending upon whether you are using soaked or un-soaked beans.
- Overnight soaked beans - 20 minutes high pressure.
- Un-soaked Beans - 40 minutes high pressure.
