Instant Pot Beef Stew

Instant Pot Beef Stew is full of flavor and made quickly in the Instant Pot

You know what?  This is like the 8th recipe I have added today.  Instant Pot Beef Stew and I keep getting told on my site that I need to add more words to make SEO better.  What’s weird though is that I’m pretty sure nobody reads all the nonsense about the recipe unless it is step-by-step instructions (which I don’t have for this recipe yet).  So, I will just leave the recipe for you!

Enjoy!
