FALL PINTO BEAN AND YAM SOUP VEGAN-1

This soup is a celebration of the flavors of autumn and the abundant harvest that this season has to offer. Make a pot of brown rice while the soup is cooking. The soup is delicious served with a small scoop of rice, sliced jalapeño peppers, avocado, and extra lime! This recipe contains two methods of cooking to choose from: a traditional stovetop method and an Instant Pot method. If choosing the Instant Pot method, make sure to follow the directions for the reduction of liquids.

This is the first recipe from Nourishing Meals that I made. My neighbor was making the soup while i was visiting with her in 2012, and I insisted that she share the recipe with me. I then purchased the cookbook and have made the soup countless times since. Everyone that I share the soup with also wants the recipe. It is my all-time favorite fall/winter soup!
