Instant Pot Beef Stew With Cider
This beef stew recipe is the perfect addition to your dinner rotation, especially if you are working to lose weight. Summer Yule, RD explains, "I know it may be surprising that a meat and potatoes recipe is supportive for weight loss, but I think you'll find this warming low-calorie stew to be quite satisfying. Clear-broth (i.e., not cream-based) soups and stews are often great choices when you want to lose weight. They are typically packed with filling veggies and protein, as well as providing a high fluid content."
What You'll Need: avocado oil, lean stew beef, onion, celery, carrots, garlic cloves, gold potatoes, tomato paste, apple cider, beef bone broth, bay leaves, thyme, rosemary, sage, peas, parsley
