Instant Pot: Beef Tacos

 

Y'all remember a few days ago, I grilled grouper for tacos and had the following toppings.


Well, I had a leftovers and I surely didn't want all those to go to waste, so I came up with a second round of tacos!  Yes, I call the soft low carb tortillas "tacos" when they're all wrapped up around a yummy filling.  Authentic, probably not, but you do you and I'll do me.  

So this morning I searched in the freezer and found a one pound package of stew meat.  Hmmm.  I thawed for a bit and the added the stew meat into the InstantPot with 2 cups water, a tablespoon of beef bouillon, 2 t. minced garlic, and 3 T. of taco seasoning.

I closed the vent, set it to pressure cook for 12 minutes and then let it naturally release for 10 minutes.

Here's the result!


I strained the beef from the liquid and placed it into a bowl.  It was so flavorful and extremely tender.

Then, all that was left to do was heat the low carb tortillas and refried beans.

I spread a layer of refried beans on the heated tortilla.  Next was a nice helping of shredded Mexican blend cheese, diced red onions, some of the beef, cilantro, taco sauce, and pickled jalapeno slices.  


Doesn't that look amazing?  It was fast, delicious, and layered with different flavors.

InstantPot for the win!
