Instant Pot® Buckwheat Minestra image

My husband and I eat soup at every supper. This is a vegan soup that I make at least 3 times a month. We love it that much. It makes a large quantity. I usually freeze half. During fall and winter, I use pumpkin or butternut squash. In the summer, I use green zucchini. I add lots of flavorful ingredients, so we never add salt.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I had some carrots, celery, and onions that I needed to use up, and this soup was the perfect way to do it. The soup was delicious and my family loved it.

I was pleasantly surprised by how easy this soup was to make. I didn't have any buckwheat on hand, so I used quinoa instead and it worked out great. The soup was delicious and my family loved it.
