Fantastic recipe. I wanted a more chunky soup so soaked the beans 3 hours and used 4 cups of chicken broth Also tossed in some leftover corned beef. Once the 45 min cook time and 10 min NPR done I added in a can of Rotel. Served topped with mozzarella and Quattro formaggio. Whole family loved it (including my 12 year old picky eater).

I love this recipe! It’s so easy and has great flavor. One thing though, maybe put a note in advising those of us in higher altitudes to cook longer. (?) I had quite a few beans still pretty firm. Distractingly so. But I’ll do better next time! Thank you for the great recipe!

Delicious, but would recommend pressure for an hr with full natural release. I did not soak beans

I cooked on high for 45min and the beans were still very firm. I’m adding another 30 min, she must have soaked the beans first???

I just made this recipe tonight in my Instant Pot. It was fantastic. I used ham slices & added some leftover smoked sausage. I didn’t use the flavor packet because of sodium issue, but did use Better Than Bouillon Reduced Sodium chicken base. No extra salt needed. My husband isn’t a soup fan, but he enjoyed this, with garlic bread on the side.
