Instant Pot Vegetable Soup
Description
Instant Pot Vegetable Soup brings together diced tomatoes, frozen peas, carrots, green beans, and corn in a richly seasoned broth made from beef stock, Italian seasoning, and Worcestershire sauce. Cooking under high pressure softens the vegetables while concentrating flavors, creating a comforting and colorful soup. The sauté step for onion and garlic adds depth and aroma before pressure cooking.
The resulting soup offers a balance of acidity from tomatoes, savory depth from the broth and Worcestershire, and freshness from the parsley stirred in after cooking. The texture is varied, with tender vegetables and a well-rounded broth suitable for lunch or light dinner.
This soup can be served with bread or a simple side salad. To make it vegan, substitute vegetable broth and omit Worcestershire sauce to avoid anchovies, making it suitable for plant-based diets.
