    Tips for making Instant Pot Chickpea Soup:

    • Soaking of the chickpeas beforehand is not required, but if you are sensitive to legumes and want to lessen the chances of digestive discomfort, soak for 3-4 hours prior to making this soup. No time adjustments are necessary!
    • You can replace the crushed tomatoes with diced or freshly chopped tomatoes.
    • You can omit or add any veggies of your choice.
    • If you do not like a touch of spicy, omit the red chili flakes.

    • This chickpea soup stores well in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to one week. Simply re-heat on the ‘saute’ setting of your Instant Pot or pressure cooker until warmed throughout.
