Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 2 medium celery stalks, chopped
  • 1 ½ teaspoons sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 32-ounce carton, low sodium organic beef broth
  • 1 15-ounce can low sodium diced tomatoes
  • 1 16-ounce can low-sodium or no salt added tomato sauce
  • 1 1.5-pound bag baby potatoes
  • ½ 1-pound bag baby carrots

Instructions

  • Turn Instant Pot to SAUTE setting, and when it reads Hot, add the ground beef, break up with spatula, and cook until no longer pink 
  • Add the onion and celery, and season with sea salt, garlic powder and pepper. Cook until onion is slightly soft
  • Hit CANCEL, then pour in beef stock, and deglaze pot (if necessary) by stirring beef to make sure nothing is stuck to bottom. Layer potatoes, carrots, diced tomatoes and tomato sauce on top -- DO NOT STIR
  • Cover with lid, turn vent to Sealing position, and hit PRESSURE COOK for 10 minutes
  • Pot will take a few minutes to reach pressure, then count down and cook. Allow a 10 minute natural release to avoid broth spraying from valve. Then, do quick release by turning valve to venting to release remaining pressure
  • When pin drops, remove lid, stir and serve!

Notes

Recipe can be made in either the 6-quart or 8-quart Instant Pot pressure cooker without changing ingredient amounts or cooking time.
Add green beans, peas, corn or your favorite vegetables for variety.
