Instant Pot Cabbage, Ham and Potato Soup

This Instant Pot Cabbage, Ham and Potato soup recipe is similar to the Cabbage, Ham Hock and Leek soup recipe in one of my favorite cookbooks, Savoring the Seasons by Beth Dooley and Lucia Watson. Their recipe was my inspiration and I made do with what I have on hand.

This cabbage, ham, and potato soup turned out hearty, brothy, and comforting, which is exactly what I wanted on a Sunday afternoon.
