Notes

This hearty ham and beans is quick, easy and oh so filling! You are going to love how simple this is. It comes together so quickly in the instant pot.
No reason to soak the beans when cooking them in the instant pot. Remove any debris or sticks from the bag of beans before adding them to an instant pot. 
The cooking time listed does not include the time that it takes for the Instant pot to come to pressure. This can take 15-30 minutes depending on the brand and size of your pressure cooker.
