Pressure cookers are fantastic for infusing flavor, and this Instant Pot Turkey Sausage Soup is proof. The Instant Pot, in particular, can also saute, which gives the turkey sausage some depth by searing it first.
It adds beautiful color too!
The veggies add solid nutrition, and creamy beans will keep you full—a delicious fall or winter meal.
INSTANT POT TURKEY SAUSAGE SOUP
I’m a big fan of kielbasa, aka polish sausage.
Yes, there are many who argue this is not a ‘healthy’ ingredient but I beg to differ. You can definitely source out local butchers who sell quality made sausages, free from nitrites, gluten and any other gunky stuff you may be looking to avoid.
And another thing .. sausage is DELICIOUS.
It’s perfect in this soup when you are looking for something other than the usual chicken. Although, I do love this chicken and lentil number in my IP. 😉
Did you notice I mentioned bone broth at the beginning of this post? If you’re not on the bone broth train you must get on now! I wrote an article for Recipes Worth Repeating last month that details how to make luxurious, immune boosting bone broth. Check it out! I make this weekly during the Fall and Winter months.
Another star in this recipe is my favourite leafy green, kale. Kale is awesome in soups as it stands up to the heat and maintains some texture.
It’s also a powerhouse vegetable.
There is nothing not like here, friends!
Enjoy it with a splash of vinegar right before you eat. This is Joe’s soup tip and it’s a good one.

In step 2 of the instructions you say to brown the sausage & transfer to a plate, but you don’t say when to add it back in. Does it get added back in & pressure cooked with the beans? Or added in after pressure cooking?
Hi Sue! Yes, add it back in with the dried beans. Thanks so much for letting me know I had missed that in the recipe! I’ve updated the post.
Thank You! 🙂
