HEARTY MINESTRONE SOUP (INSTANT POT®)
So I feel like I am using my Instant Pot® at least 4 times a week. I have been having a great time experimenting and am amazed at the way the flavors are locked in and how quickly the meals are finished... not to say the super easy clean up. The main insert can go in the dishwasher and I hand-clean the top with very sudsy water.

Steps:
- In a medium skillet, brown ground beef until completely cooked.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make your minestrone soup taste its best. Use ripe vegetables, flavorful broth, and high-quality beef.
- Don't overcrowd the pot: If you overcrowd the pot, the vegetables won't cook evenly and the soup will be watery. Add the vegetables in batches if necessary.
- Cook the soup until the vegetables are tender: The vegetables should be tender but still have a little bit of bite to them. Overcooked vegetables will become mushy and lose their flavor.
- Season the soup to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a splash of lemon juice or red wine vinegar for a bit of brightness.
- Serve the soup with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings for minestrone soup include grated Parmesan cheese, crusty bread, and a dollop of pesto.
