Let’s not wait any longer… I gave a sneak peek to our new Facebook group and was planning on posting something else this week but you guys… this Instant Pot Beef Vegetable Soup is just too amazing! I have so many ideas and recipes to share with you all so prioritizing when to post everything is always fun. Since it is FREEZING here and I know so many people have just gotten an Instant Pot, a hearty beef broth veggie soup seems more appropriate than anything else on my radar.

I am always loving the many new recipe inspirations, ideas and groups there are for healthy eating and the amount of support online for them! The internet age is really helpful considering the learning curve which can come with so many of the challenges we are faced with in the kitchen! We recently started an “allergy friendly” Instant Pot Facebook Group, open to anyone interested in recipes catering to special dietary restrictions, preferences or actual allergies.

One thing I am passionate about in life and online communications is being an advocate for kindness and support. I have seen so many “trolls” and “keyboard warriors” online and find it to be very distasteful. I wouldn’t imagine surrounding myself with such characters in real life and luckily haven’t had any issues with groups we have. There are so many different ways of living life and not one person can say that their way is the best for every other person in this world. That being said, we are not against any certain diet choice so please feel welcome to join our groups without fear!

I know I have mentioned before, although I am obsessed with and rave about it, the only “affiliation” we have with the Instant Pot is through being a part of the Amazon affiliate program. If you aren’t familiar, Amazon (and other affiliate links) are an almost effortless way for websites to earn small percentages of the sales that a company gets when a buyer is directed to their site through the links or ads on affiliated website, like ours. You can read the full Amazon affiliate disclosure and more about our medical disclaimer here.

So if you want to support what we (or other websites) are doing, the best way at this time to do it is to share our content with your friends and if you are shopping on Amazon anyway, you can purchase your Amazon items through the links on our site. The cool part is that it doesn’t add any extra cost to you! I regularly support other newer blogs through their affiliate ads and links, or even better by regularly sharing the content on social media-it is super easy!

In regards to this recipe, obviously you can substitute any type of broth you would like here, as with all of our recipes. Know that the intention of this soup was to be like the “beef and barley” flavor I was craving at the time, so bear in mind that depending on what you sub, the result may not be as flavorful as the initial recipe. Thank you all for your continued support, we are very happy to be sharing our recipes, tips and real food journey with you!

I can’t wait to hear about how you all like this soup, make sure you check us out on our new YouTube channel! As always we hope you enjoy our recipes and please give your suggestions below for what you want to see next. We highly encourage experimentation when cooking, after all that is how we began blogging about our creations!
