Instant Pot Ham & Bean Soup

Simple soup recipe for the instant pot! Original recipe here: https://iwashyoudry.com/instant-pot-ham-bone-soup-recipe/

 1 Ham Bone or Ham Hock (fresh or frozen)
 1 lb mixed dried beans
 1 medium-large red onion, diced
 3 stalks celery finely chopped
 5 carrots, peeled & finely chopped
 1 clove elephant garlic, minced
 1 tsp cumin
 1 tsp pepper
 1 tsp salt
 2 Bay leaves
 8 Chicken Bullion Cubes
 6 cups water
 1.50 cups Ham, juice, and pineapple - (leftovers from ham dinner. )
1

Combine all ingredients into the liner of the pressure cooker and stir. Secure lid on pressure cooker and make sure valve is in the closed position.

Note that the ham "leftovers" I used were from a slow cooker recipe with brown sugar, pineapple and ham - so i used some shredded ham, glaze, and whatever pineapple pieces i scooped out with it. just using pieces of sliced ham will work well, too - the point being this recipe is pretty versatile!

2

Use the Bean/Chili setting for 50 minutes (or HIGH pressure). Let the pressure naturally release when finished cooking for 30 minutes, then carefully release the pressure the rest of the way.

3

Remove the ham bone from the pressure cooker and shred any meat and return it to the pot. Discard the bones and cartilage along with the two bay leaves.
