When my husband comes home after being on the road, I like to have a hot pot of this traditional soup waiting for him. It's a wonderful "welcome home" meal on a cold winter day.

My family loves this Country tomato and Rice Soup. I have been serving it for a number of years since I found it in a Taste of Home Cookbook. I recently purchased an Instant Pot and would like to make this soup in it. Could someone please suggest a conversion form stovetop to Instant Pot for this recipe? Thank you!
