Instant Pot Poor Man’s Stew

Instant Pot Poor Mans Stew aka Hamburger Stew, from prep to plate in under 30 minutes. A delicious, quick and easy meal that won’t break the budget either.  It’s made with ground beef, potatoes, carrots, onion, garlic, stewed tomatoes, beef stock and plenty of spices.  I’m not one to enjoy really  hot foods, but if you’re looking to give it a kick – add a jalapeno.  What’s great about this recipe is it’s on your plate in 30 minutes.  Ya can’t get any better than this.  I made it last night and the boy’s were very pleased.  Enjoy 🙂
