Split Pea Soup (WFPBNO)

I have quite a few mason jars filled with dried beans and peas. Some of them have passed their best used by date and I decided it was time to get out the InstaPot and use the split green peas. I have never made a pressure cooked soup before but knew that the peas were sure to get soft using this method. This turned out so tasty in such a quick time. I will probably begin using the InstaPot more often for these types of dishes, especially ones using dried beans.

  • 4 cups water
  • 1 medium  sweet potato, diced
  • 1 cup split green peas
  • 1/2 cup dried split yellow peas
  • 1/2 sweet onion, chopped
  • 2 stalks celery, chopped
  • 1 carrot, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 2 tablespoons dried parsley flakes
  • 1 teaspoon dried mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon liquid smoke
  • 1/4 cup nutritional yeast


Add all of the ingredients except the nutritional yeast to the InstaPot. Stir well to mix. Cook on high pressure for 25 minutes. All pressure to release naturally.

Carefully removed lid and add the nutritional yeast and black pepper. Give it a good stir; if it's too chunky for you use an immersion blender to puree some of the veggies. 

Ladle up and serve with a side salad, bread, cracker, cornbread, etc.
Enjoy!!
