This is one of my favorite soup recipes to make, Instant Pot Ham Bean and Potato soup or Sopas de Jamon y habichuelas. Now, this is a simple soup to make, and you can’t mess this up as you can add and make it your flavorful way.

Potato and ham soup served in a white bowl, topped with green onions.

We use leftover ham, our own Instant Pot ham broth, and our Instant Pot dried bean recipe.

Let me start by saying that you can skip ham broth and add chicken broth, which will be perfect! Also, add the water depending on how “thick” you want the soup. You don’t want to overflow the Instant Pot.
