Christina's Notes
Double or Half this Recipe: Increase or decrease the ingredients proportionately. If increasing, split this instant pot bean recipes into two batches and store the beans in a large container.
Food Processor: If you do not have a food processor, a blender or immersion blender will work as well.
Black Beans: You also use dried black beans in place of the pinto beans.
Nachos: Make some nachos with this healthy instant pot black bean recipe. Start with tortilla chips, then add the beans and queso, sour cream, corn, jalapenos, cilantro, cheddar cheese, hot sauce, and a meat of your choice!
