Instant Pot Vegan Black Bean Soup (Easy and Satisfying)

Anybody who tells you that a vegan-friendly bowl of soup can’t be immensely satisfying has clearly never tried this instant pot vegan black bean soup recipe. Even without any kind of meat, this soup offers a ton of protein, along with an abundance of essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. A hearty mix of veggies that includes onion, celery, carrots, garlic, corn, and tomatoes add plenty of variety when it comes to the taste of the soup. It has just the right amount of fiery kick thanks to the addition of chili powder and ground cumin. Last but not least, the black beans round the whole dish off by adding a solid amount of protein and dietary fiber into the mix. I’m not vegan, but I think it’s safe to say this is a home run.
