  • Brown the ground beef in your pressure cooker on the sauté setting or in a large skillet until it gets a nice crust for flavor.

  • Stir in tomato paste and cook for 1–2 more minutes for deeper flavor.
  • Add rice, beef broth, and fire roasted tomatoes. Stir well to combine.

Notes

Swap beef with turkey for a lighter version or add red pepper flakes for a spicy twist. Freezes well, too!
