Beef Burritos Filling from the Instant Pot!

We had some thawed beef with onions and assorted colors of peppers on hand.  I had frozen some green chile last time we made it and it felt like a fabulous dinner was going to be in the making with very little hands on time.

We followed the same idea using pork on another day and it was very good too.  We use the leftovers to make extra burritos that my husband can grab and take to work or the meat here would be perfect inside a baked egg roll.


Let's Get Crafty!

Toss everything in the Instant Pot:

2 lbs beef, in chunks
1 onion, sliced
2 peppers, sliced (I used yellow and red because I love the added color)
2 tablespoons taco seasoning mix
1/2 can low sodium beef broth


Once everything is in the Instant Pot liner - mix it up to distribute the taco seasoning.

Lock the lid.  Select meat/stew setting and adjust the time up or down until it gets to 30 minutes.  Make sure knob at the top is set to sealing.  I have a tendency to hear the timer go off and switching the Instant Pot knob to venting to release the pressure faster.  On this day I was also nervous the peppers would be overcooked.  They were a little bit for my liking  Another option to putting them in the Instant Pot could be sauteing them on the oven and just doing the meat in the IP.  The one pot wonder and less dishes seems to win for me each time.  :D

Thanks for stopping by!
