Instructions
Instant Pot Instructions:
- Turn Instant Pot to saute setting. When display says HOT add in the beef and break it up. Add in the onion. Brown for about 5 minutes. Drain off excess grease.
- Pour in the broth and scrape bottom of pot so that nothing is sticking.
- Add in the cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, tomato sauce, picante sauce, green chiles, ranch beans, corn, carrot and rice. Don’t stir.
- Cover Instant Pot and secure the lid. Make sure valve is set to sealing. Set the SOUP button to 22 minutes for brown rice or 5 minutes for white rice. When time is up let pot sit for 10 minutes and then move valve to venting. Remove the lid.
- Stir well. Ladle into bowls and top with Fritos, cheese and avocados.
Slow Cooker Instructions:
- Heat a pan over medium high heat. Add in the beef and break it up. Add in the onion. Brown for about 5 minutes. Drain off excess grease. Add into the slow cooker.
- Add in the broth, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, tomato sauce, picante sauce, green chiles, ranch beans, corn, carrot and rice. Stir.
- Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 4 hours, or until rice is cooked through. (Each slow cooker cooks differently and brown rice will take much longer than white rice to cook.)
- Stir and ladle into bowls and top with Fritos, cheese and avocados.
