In this video, I’ll show you how to make two different Instant Pot Ground Beef recipes that are perfect for quick and easy weeknight meals. Both recipes can be doubled (or tripled) up and batch cooked for the freezer (depending on the size of your Instant Pot!).

I just found your channel and I love it 💖👏🏼🍃 I like your personality and the way you cook, waste free, very natural, healthy, and very convenient , I love it 💖💖You’re AWESOME 👏🏼 💖
Hi, First of all, I love your videos and already made some, i m a first time instant pot user. But my question is, i notice you always add the tomato paste after presuure cooking and not with all ingredients at first. Is there a reason for that? I always make bolognese and add the tomato paste to the beef and saute a bit before adding the stuck but never made it in pressure cooker before!!! Please let me know ❤
You are positively fabulous, as a down-home, practical aficionado of useful kitchen gadgetry! Your presentations are clear and concise. I have the Instant Pot Duo Crisp with Ultimate Lid (replacing my Instant Pot Max), and you help me to be very glad that I have it. Thank you!
Have you tried making pork belly in the duo crisp? I’ve made it in my old pressure cooker before but wondering how it would taste being air fried
Please keep these recipes coming. It is hard to find such good content on cooking in the instant pot model I have which is this one. Love your videos.
Lovely job there, Susan. Hope all is well in your world 😊
I too prefer black beans to kidney beans. We like a Chilli sans carne with peppers and courgette and 2 types of bean instead of meat.
Great video, I should definitely use the instant pot for batch cooking.
Great recipes for the freezer – thanks! I also loved the 'Scottish Play' reference too 😂
Hello from New Mexico!
I have never thought of putting squash in my chili. Hmmm. That looks like a delicious and healthy meal. Instead of the rice, we might throw it on top of a bed of Fritos, and a sprinkle of sharp cheddar. Here that is called Frito pie. And instead of the paprika, we would use a 1/4 cup of red chile powder.
