In a large skillet over medium heat add the oil. Once hot add the ground beef, onion, green pepper and garlic cloves. Saute until ground beef is no longer pink.

Step 2

Next add everything to the slow cooker except for green beans and kale.

Step 3

Cook on low for 8-9 hours or on high for 5-6 hours.

With about two hours of cooking time left, add the green beans and kale. If you prefer your soup to be thinner, feel free to add additional broth at this time. Cook until the green beans are tender.

Step 5

Taste and season as needed before serving.

Step 6

Select ‘Saute’ on the Instant Pot and add the oil. Once the oil is hot, add ground beef, garlic, onions, and bell pepper, sauté for 5-7 minutes or until meat is cooked and no longer pink.

Step 7

Add the rest of the ingredient except for the kale and green beans if using frozen. Note: add 2 cups of broth vs. 1 quart. Lock the lid into place and flip valve to sealing position.
