Instant Pot Vegetable Beef Soup

Ingredients:

• 1 pound stewing beef, cut into bite-sized pieces
• 1 onion, chopped
• 2 carrots, sliced
• 2 celery stalks, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes, with juices
• 4 cups beef broth
• 2 cups water
• 1 cup frozen corn
• 1 cup frozen green beans
• 1 cup diced potatoes
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 2 tablespoons olive oil

Directions:

1. Sauté Beef:
   • Set the Instant Pot to sauté mode. Add olive oil and allow it to heat. Season the beef pieces with salt and pepper, then brown them in the Instant Pot for 4-5 minutes. Remove the beef and set it aside.
2. Sauté Vegetables:
   • In the same pot, add onions, carrots, and celery. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
3. Add Remaining Ingredients:
   • Return the beef to the pot. Pour in diced tomatoes (with juices), beef broth, water, frozen corn, frozen green beans, diced potatoes, dried thyme, and dried oregano. Stir to combine.
4. Pressure Cook:
   • Close the Instant Pot lid and set the valve to sealing. Cook on high pressure for 15 minutes.
5. Natural Release:
   • Allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes. Then carefully switch the valve to venting to release any remaining pressure.
6. Serve:
   • Once the pressure has released, carefully open the lid. Stir the soup and taste for seasoning. Adjust salt and pepper if needed.
   • Serve the Instant Pot Vegetable Beef Soup hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
