Instant Pot Beef and Vegetable Soup

Set it and forget it.

It’s November, and we’ve already had our first snow. That might not seem crazy to some, but here in Oklahoma it was a bit early. So of course we have started to fill our pots with chili, stews, and soups.

This beef and vegetable soup has been a perfect quick dump dish for our cold weather days. It’s coziness in a bowl really. The meat and veggies create a nice broth on their own. Adding a little garlic, tomato sauce, and seasoning easily elevates it.

I used fresh vegetables. If you use canned instead wait until the meat is finished cooking and add those at the end. Also, if you aren’t sold on an Instant Pot yet this would work in the crock pot on high for about 4 hours.
