Notes
My favorite way to take this recipe to the next level is to have homemade taco seasoning on hand (seriously super easy to make and great to have around anytime). Another thing is to make your own bone broth by saving all meat bones in the freezer and then covering them with an inch of water and running the soup cycle 3x on the instant pot. Then you can freeze the broth to pull out anytime.
- If the fat in the the meat bothers you in soup then you can strain the meat after cooking it before you add it to the soup.
- Perfect with some sour cream, a squeeze of lime, tortilla chips, shredded cheese from a block, fresh chopped cilantro, or avocado slices.
