No Soak Instant Pot Black Beans are high in fiber and protein, loaded with vegetables, great for tacos. These easy no soak Mexican black beans are made with chilis, peppers, onion, and spices. Perfect to meal prep, make ahead, or batch cook!

These black beans are a perfect pantry staple dinner, and a great way to use those extra dried beans you have in your cupboard. I love batch cooking a big pot of these beans on the weekend to use in lunches and dinners throughout the week. 

We’ve been making this recipe for about 4 years now, and I haven’t bought canned black beans since! Cooking perfectly spiced beans in the Instant Pot couldn’t be easier or quicker.

These spicy black beans in the instant pot are perfect for any meal. Add them to vegan Huevos Rancheros for breakfast, a burrito bowl for lunch, or accompanying sheet pan fajitas for dinner!

These beans are fantastic in Black Bean Omelets,  Quinoa Salad with Black Beans, or Black Bean Shakshuka. Hearty simple black beans to add to your next Meatless Monday, Taco Tuesday, or any night of the week.

Easy Vegan Black Bean Recipes

This vegan Mexican black beans recipe is a simple way to get extra veggies in your diet. I’m all about making recipes plant-based when I can. Vegan cooking does NOT have to be bland, boring, or flavorless… It’s quite the opposite when done right. By building meals around vegan pantry staples and swapping in a few plant-based ingredients you can make better meals for you and your family.

Instant Pot No Soak Mexican Black Beans for Easy Meal Prep

Of all my kitchen appliances, and I mean ALL of them, my Instant Pot pressure cooker is my most-used! I cook everything in it from beans and legumes, to soups and pasta dishes.

You can get Instant Pots in many sizes, but I like my 8-quart model, which is ideal for batch cooking and meal prep. It also has a quicker pressure-release feature which saves me even more cooking time.

I love that everything can cook in one pot, which makes for way less dishes and hands-off cooking. The Instant Pot is hands-down my favorite kitchen appliance, and actually makes my life so much easier.

Do I Need to Soak Black Beans Before Cooking Them in the Instant Pot?

No need to soak your beans! The pressure cooker perfectly cooks them without needing them to soak in water overnight.  I cook all my beans in my Instant Pot, and never soak them before hand.
