Ingredients
2
pounds
lean ground beef
1
cup
salsa
3
tablespoons
taco seasoning
1
cup
water
Instructions
Place the ground beef (raw) in the Instant pot.
Pour the salsa on top and sprinkle with the taco seasoning.
Pour the water around the beef.
Add the lid and set the valve to sealing.
Set the pressure for 15 minutes.
Do a quick release to release the pressure. Then use a spoon to break up the taco meat.
If the mixture is too watery, switch the instant pot to the sauté setting and cook off the excess liquid.
Serve in your favorite type of tortillas with taco toppings and enjoy!
Notes
You can use frozen ground beef as well. If you use frozen ground beef, set the pressure to 20 minutes with a quick release.
