Instant Pot Vegetable Soup

Ingredients

Scale

1lb of chuck roast, shredded

1 Tsp coconut oil

1 medium onion, finely diced

1 Tbsp tomato paste

2 tsp minced garlic

2 tps Italian seasoning

2 tsp salt

1/4 tsp black pepper

6 cups chicken stock

3/4 medium potatoes, chunked

3 large carrots, sliced

3 large celery, sliced

1 can tomatoes, diced

1 bag of beans and peas, frozen

Instructions

The day before or early in the morning I like to go ahead and place my chuck roast in the crockpot on low for 4 hours with 1/2 cup water, salt and pepper

  • Heat oil in Instant Pot on saute mode. Add onion, cook and stir until softened.
  • Turn the Instant Pot off and add the tomato paste, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper. Stir and cook for 1 minute on the residual heat.
  • Add chicken broth to the still hot pan, and scrape the bottom with a spoon to remove any left behind bits.
  • Add potatoes, carrots, celery, tomatoes, green beans, corn, bay leaf and stir.
  • Put the lid on, turn the valve to sealing, and select Manual or Pressure Cook for 2 minutes. It will take about 15 minutes to come to pressure and begin counting down.
  • Once the cook time is over, let pressure release naturally for 8-10 minutes before opening the valve and removing the lid (this is to prevent the splatter that can come when pressure cooking soup).
  • Stir in the spinach, adjust seasonings to taste (add 1 teaspoon sugar to balance tomato paste if needed) and serve.

Notes

*The recipe makes approximately 9.5-10 cups of soup, or eight 1 ¼ cup servings.
