Vegan White Bean Soup

White bean soup is the perfect meal as we transition from fall into winter. I love coming home to a warm, cozy meal when the weather starts to turn cold. Unfortunately finding time to make a warm meal from scratch every night can be a challenge. Even if you may have the time, end-of-the-day fatigue can get in the way of one’s motivation for cooking a warm meal.

One solution is to make a batch of a delicious and comforting soup! This white bean soup is great if you are cooking for a large family, or just cooking for 1 or 2 people and you enjoy leftovers for a cold night when you don’t feel like cooking. Bean soups are especially some of my favorites because they are filling from their protein and fiber content. Using beans as a protein in general is also inexpensive too.

How to serve a white bean soup

This soup can be made as the main dish, or as a side paired with another protein and vegetables. This recipe can be made on the stop top, crock pot, or in the instant pot! Having a few different preparation methods gives you flexibility and can help spare you time to unwind at the end of the day. All three of these cooking methods require only one cooking vessel to cook in, reducing the number of dishes to clean up after!

For another warm winter dish made in an instant pot for easy clean up, try our Corn and Zucchini Chowder!
