1.5 teaspoon Onion Powder
½ teaspoon Salt
⅛ teaspoon Cayenne Pepper {optional to add a little heat}

Instructions

Place Ground Beef in Instant Pot, set to Saute and brown for 5-7 minutes.
Once browned, cancel Saute setting and drain grease from Instant Pot.
In small bowl, combine Ranch Seasoning, Taco Seasoning, Onion Powder, Salt and optional Cayenne Pepper.
Add Beef Broth, Kidney Beans, Black Beans, Corn and Seasonings from small bowl to Instant Pot, and combine thoroughly.
To avoid touching the sides of Instant Pot, add to the center of mixture the Tomatoes and Rotel.
Place lid on pot and select Pressure Cook, High Pressure and change cook time to 8 minutes.
Preheat will begin 10 seconds after settings have been selected.
Once cook time has completed, quick release pressure before removing lid.
Allow soup to cool for 5 minutes, then stir before serving into bowls.
Top with Sour Cream, Shredded Cheddar, Chopped Green Onions and Fritos to send the flavor over the top!

Notes

It will take approx. 15 minutes for Instant Pot to reach pressure before your selected cook time begins. This is in addition to the time to brown beef and the 8 minute cook time you have selected.

If using a Crock Pot Pressure Cooker, select the "Beans/Chili" setting to manually override cook time and pressure settings.

Serve in bowls and top with Sour Cream, Shredded Cheddar Cheese, Chopped Green Onions, and Fritos.
