Notes

While this recipe is really good using only five ingredients, you may want to add diced bell pepper, diced onion or dice tomatoes while cooking to bulk it up and add more flavor.
You may cook the mixture (after the ground beef is fully cooked) in the slow cooker on low for 4-6 hours.
Alternatively, you can cook the beef in the Instant Pot on Saute and then add all other ingredients and set it to slow cooker for 4-6 hours.
