Instant Pot Potato Soup – made HEALTHIER! | The Recipe Rebel

You’ve probably heard of the Instant Pot ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

But these simple & easy to follow recipes work with any pressure cooker! All pressure cookers work on the same, simple principle: Steam pressure.

Within the sealed pot, the steam builds up therein to a very high pressure, which helps food cook much faster than other traditional methods, such as with crock pots and or ovens!

This Instant Pot Potato Soup is creamy, comforting, and loaded with chunks of potato and a few veggies just for excellent measure 😉 It is the ULTIMATE comfort food.
