Equipment

Ingredients

  • 4 medium potatoes
  • 3-4 medium carrots
  • 1 (15 oz) can canned diced tomatoes
  • 3 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1 ½ cup green beans (1 handful)
  • 1 green bell pepper

  • 2-3 celery sticks
  • 1 onion
  • 4 garlic cloves
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • ¼ teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper

Instructions

  • Peel and dice the carrots and potatoes. Clean and cut the peppers, green beans, and celery into bite sized pieces. Peel and dice the onion, and grate or finely chop the garlic.
  • Heat up a teaspoon of olive oil in an Instant Pot on SAUTE setting. Add diced onion, and sauté for a few minutes until it is soft and translucent.

  • Then, add grated garlic and seasoning, and sauté for another minute.
    1 yellow bell pepper, 2-3 celery sticks, 1 onion, 1 green bell pepper
  • Press cancel to turn off the SAUTE setting. Scrape the bottom and sides of the pot to loosen up any stuck pieces of onion.
