Instant Pot Hamburger Soup
Cold weather = soup weather and we wouldn't have it any other way. We've been making this Hamburger Soup for years - it's easy, cheap, and flavorful. We didn't think it could get any easier, but sure as shit the Instant Pot proved us wrong again.
We usually make this dish in the slow cooker on low for hours so we were pretty skeptical when we realized it would only take 8 minutes of pressure cooking (mind blown). We used the Hearty Hamburger Soup recipe from Busy Creating Memories as a guideline for this recipe. We use the Instant Pot Duo 60 7-In-1 6 Quart which was about the same size as our Slow Cooker.
