Instant Pot Winter Soup

My family loves this soup! It is a beefy, meaty version of vegetable soup. In this step by step, I made it in my kitchen at home using my stove and pressure cooker. I also make it when we are out camping. It can also be slow cooked in a crock pot. When camping with out hookups and restricted on generator hours this meal is very handy! So here we go!!

Now use a bit of oil to brown your beef.. I use Pampered Chef Garlic infused.

Another PC favorite the mix and chop! Chop the meat to little chucks and leave to brown.

While the meat starts to brown, cut and chop half an onion.
