• I recommend using a wooden spoon when sauteeing your meat to avoid scratching the pot.

• Ground beef is so very versatile and really inexpensive too. There are a multitude of ways to use it and many are quite healthy if you buy 90/10 and drain the grease.

I have found that using ground turkey works just as well most of the time. It just has a different texture. I used it to make this Instant Pot Mexican pizza though and it was a huge hit at our house using my springform pan.
