For as long as I can remember, my family and I would have a weekly taco night at home with some Mexican-inspired sides and dips. We’ve changed things up a bit recently, and it’s all thanks to the discovery of this mind-blowing instant pot taco soup recipe. All of your favorite taco staples are included here: lean ground beef, garlic, onion, a mix of pinto and kidney beans, tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, taco seasoning, and a few other choice ingredients. The best part about making this recipe with an instant pot is clean up is a breeze and takes just a few minutes. It’s a great investment if you don’t already have one.
