Easy InstantPot Pinto Beans (Vegan, Oil Free)

It wasn't too long ago that I was still buying canned beans from the store. At the time it seemed more convenient and I liked the way that the beans held up when using them. But now that we have out instant pot I realize that it's way easier and delicious to make your own pinto beans at home. These are so great because of how versatile they are. We use these in a bunch of Mexican dishes throughout the week, and I also love adding them to my Southwest Spinach Salad!

Here's what you will need!

• 1 cup of dry pinto beans

• 4 cups of water

• 1 tsp garlic powder

• 1 tsp onion powder

• 1 tsp ground black pepper

• 1 tsp cumin

• 1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes

• InstantPot

Directions:

1. Add all of the ingredients into the instantpot

2. Set instantpot for 30 minutes on the pressure cook setting

3. Quick release

Enjoy!
