💰Cheaper: canola oil

Avocado oil is healthier, while canola oil is often cheaper.

paprika

🥗Healthier: smoked paprika

💰Cheaper: chili powder

Smoked paprika adds flavor without extra calories, and chili powder is a budget-friendly alternative.

Set the Instant Pot to sauté mode and heat olive oil until shimmering.

Add chopped onion and minced garlic; sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Stir in diced beef chuck; brown on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.

Add chopped carrots, potatoes, and bell pepper; mix well.

In a bowl, combine tomato paste, beef broth, cumin, smoked paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper; stir to combine.

Pour the mixture over the beef and vegetables in the pot.

Close the lid and set the Instant Pot to high pressure for 35 minutes.

Once cooking is complete, allow natural pressure release for 10 minutes, then quick release any remaining pressure.

Remove bay leaves and stir in chopped parsley before serving.
