Pressure Cooker Italian Beef (Gluten Free, Paleo, AIP)
I need meals that require as little hands on cooking time as possible and not much thought. I use my Instant Pot for both slow cooking and pressure cooking because it makes 5 minutes of hands on prep work taste like 2 hours of slaving away in the kitchen. Meals come out tender and full of flavor, especially this Pressure Cooker Italian Beef recipe.
When I made this Pressure Cooker Italian Beef last week we first ate it over cauliflower rice with a giant side of green veggies. Later in the week I heated some up in a cast iron skillet until it got perfectly crispy and ate it over a sweet potato with broccoli. My husband likes his mixed into a veggie stir fry. We’ve even used it as a pizza topping! This Pressure Cooker Italian Beef is an easy and flavorful way to please the entire family. Try it with different combinations of vegetables and sides to find your favorites!
