Instant Pot Beef Stew
Instant Pot Beef Stew is another one of those life-changing recipes. Most of us have made traditional beef stew and are familiar with the long cooking times. Beef stew is not something I would normally make during the week but now with this Instant Pot Beef Stew, I can make it any night of the week I want! I absolutely love that! I love soup and stew. I could eat soup or stew every night for dinner. Serve it with salad and bread and it is a delicious filling meal.
My boys have been raised loving soup as well. I learned early on that one of the easiest ways to get my boys to eat ANY vegetables was to put it into soup. I have loaded this stew up with vegetables.
I love to load up soups with vegetables, another one of my favorite soups is my Instant Pot Chicken Zoodle Soup. What a delicious vegetable twist.
