Freezer Meal Instructions

1. Cook the ground beef and onion and place in a resealable gallon-sized freezer bag or other freezer-safe container.
2. Dump in the remaining ingredients EXCEPT FOR THE BROTH into the bag.
3. Let the bag cool down (if still hot from the cooked ground beef). Place in the freezer for up to 90 days.
4. When ready to eat, remove frozen soup from the bag (if it won’t come out, run the bag under hot water so that you can remove/peel off the frozen bag).
5. Place the frozen soup into your Instant Pot (if it froze in a shape that won’t fit into your Instant Pot, you may need to defrost it for a few minutes or break it into pieces to make it fit).
6. Add 2 cups beef broth your Instant Pot.
