Instant Pot White Beans, Sausage, and Rice – It only takes minutes and a few ingredients to make this easy all in one pot meal filled with smoked sausage, white beans, rice, and some spice.
It’s been way too long since I’ve checked in with you guys! However, I come with a new favorite recipe that I see us making over and over, and I know you will love it too! This White Beans, Sausage, and Rice is your kind of recipe folks!
So I made this recipe up basically out of necessity. We are currently in the post Hurricane Laura phase of life right now. Laura decided to give our town a direct hit. If you follow me on Instagram, then you know I’ve shared some heartbreaking photos. Pretty much every corner you turn has damage. If you had damage to your home, then you probably had damage to your place of employment, your favorite restaurants, stores, your family’s homes, etc. Our community has been turned upside down. Many are on week 3 of no power. And this is the case not just in Lake Charles, but all the surrounding towns. And we aren’t even directly on the coast. Towns south of us are destroyed too. It’s a long road ahead of us.
My little family has counted our blessings over and over. Our home only sustained some exterior damage. My husband is a generator guru, so we had it really good even without electricity. Several family members stayed with us, and to be honest, I absolutely loved the family time we’ve had over these few weeks. God just keeps giving us these opportunities to spend time as a family and to look at what really matters. 😀
So back to this recipe. It was born out of necessity. Not too many stores were open, and I had sausage, canned white beans, and rice plus my trusty Instant Pot. I threw the ingredients in there for supper one day, and this little jewel of a recipe was born! We shared it with neighbors that night, and I’m so excited to say it was a hit. I’ve already made it again! I told you I see this recipe a lot in our future.
Tips for Making Instant Pot White Beans, Sausage, and Rice

- I always have canned white beans because of this recipe. Use your favorite white beans.

Instant Pot White Beans, Sausage, and Rice
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds smoked pork sausage, sliced
- 3 15 oz. cans Great Northern Beans, undrained
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1/2 cup medium grain rice, uncooked
- 1 tsp creole seasoning
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- Parsley to garnish (optional)
Instructions
1. Place all ingredients in Instant Pot and stir to combine.
2. Set it to manual pressure for 15 minutes. Make sure valve is set to "sealing." It will take about 15 minutes to come to pressure before it starts to count down.
3. Once it is done, allow it to naturally release pressure for about 10 minutes.
4. Carefully turn valve to release pressure (always grab from under valve because steam comes out of the top).
Remove lid and stir and serve.
