Ingredients
- 2 tbsp avocado oil or olive oil
- 1 yellow onion (diced)
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1.5 lbs ground beef*
- 2 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1 tsp sea salt + more to taste
- 2 green bell pepper (seeded and diced)
- 1 red bell pepper (seeded and diced)
- 1 14 oz can fire roasted diced tomatoes
- 1 15 oz can tomato sauce
- 3 cups beef broth**
- 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
- 2 cups cauliflower rice***
- 1/4 cup shredded parmesan (optional)
- fresh basil (for garnish)
Instructions
- Select saute on the Instant Pot. Coat the bottom of the pot with oil, then add the onion and garlic. Saute for 3 to 4 minutes, then add the ground beef. Continue to cook until the beef is no longer pink, about 3 to 4 minutes. Select cancel.
- Top the beef mixture with salt and Italian seasoning. Now add the bell peppers, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, beef broth, and red wine vinegar.
- Secure the lid with the steam vent in the sealed position. Select manual or pressure, and cook on high pressure for 6 minutes.
- Use a quick release and remove the lid. Stir in the cauliflower rice. Serve hot and garnish with parmesan cheese (if using) and fresh basil.
Notes
*Can also use ground turkey or sausage
**Can use chicken broth in place of beef
***I use frozen cauliflower rice. If making your own, you will need to chop a small head of cauliflower into small florets and pulse in a food processor.
