Instant Pot Beets

If you are always looking for ways to use your Instant Pot, then you’ve come to the right place! I love mine because it is so easy to use. I’ve even rounded up a whole list of meals, side dishes, and easy veggies (sweet potatoes in the instant pot, yes please!) you might have never thought of making with your Instant Pot. You can find that round-up here). This Instant Pot Beet recipe is one of the easiest ways to get vitamins and nutrients onto your dinner plate. Because they pressure cook, it only takes 10 minutes in the Instant Pot to get perfectly soft. You barely need a knife to slice them open! Beets vary in size, so if you have large beets and small beets in the same pot, I recommend cutting the large beets down to the size of the small ones so they will all be done at the same time. I love this recipe because it’s just too easy!
