No Beef Stew

This dish started out as a beans and greens dish while on vacation in Oklahoma. We were at my sister-in-law's house for a cookout (Oh my gosh, I had forgotten just how much meat people eat at a cookout!) and I brought my Instant Pot to cook for Bob and I. I kept adding things and it was a lot like beef stew! So when Bob asked for some of my beef stew I decided I'd better post it so I wouldn't forget what I had done! Amounts of ingredients are variable...make a little or a lot. I like to make a lot and portion and freeze what we don't eat in a couple of days.

No Beef Stew

Several potatoes (depending on how big they are and how much stew you want to make, use your favorite potato)
1 bag greens (such as collards, kale, spinach, etc.)
2 cans beans, rinsed and drained (any kind...mix and match)
1 cup frozen sliced carrots
1 medium onion, diced
1 cup frozen corn
4 rounded teaspoons Better Than Bouillon No Beef Broth paste
Salt and pepper to taste
Garlic powder to taste
1 1/2 to 2 cups hot water

Scrub or peel (if not organic) the potatoes and cut into large diced pieces and place into the Instant Pot liner. Add the rest of the ingredients (adding the water last).

Set the liner into the IP, cover and seal the lid. Make sure the knob is turned to pressure. Set on Manual for 5 minutes. Quick Release.

Note that it will take a while to come up to pressure because of all the frozen foods. If you want to use fresh, that's great and it will not take as long to come up to pressure. I just always have bags of greens, corn, and carrots in my freezer so that's what I use.
