2teaspoonsdried parsley
several grindings fresh black pepper
Instructions
If you are making homemade broth, start by making that in the Instant Pot.
In a large pot over medium heat, add a little olive oil, butter, or coconut oil.
Add onions and celery.
Sauté until soft, about 3-5 minutes.
Add in garlic and cook for just a minute or two, being careful not to burn.
Add in carrots and potatoes.
Strain broth into the pot if using homemade, or just add in store-bought broth.
Allow it to simmer for about 20 minutes until the potatoes and carrots are soft.
Brown ground beef over medium heat, breaking it up into bite sized pieces, for a couple of minutes in a large skillet until cooked, and add to the pot.
Sprinkle in dried or fresh parsley to the simmering soup.
Add salt and pepper to taste.
Shred cheese and add to the pot.
Serve, and add your favorite toppings.
Notes
Make less dishes by reusing your pots/IP. I like to go straight from making a whole chicken in the Instant Pot, to making bone broth, and then straight to making soup.
Brown the ground beef before adding it to the pot for a much more delicious and flavorful meal.
Add some frozen peas or green beans to the hot soup to help cool it down enough while also cooking the veggies before serving.
Use a garlic mincer to get the garlic nice and tiny. No giant chunks of garlic makes the kids happier.
