Do you meal prep? I didn’t used to but I’ve been doing it lately and it’s amazing. I always have a healthy lunch to go grab out of the fridge and it means less snacking and eating the junk I usually grab. I’ve been doing the 80 Day Obsession workout and eating plan from Beachbody for the last month. The meal plan is timed nutrition which means I eat at specific times based on when I work out. It was a lot to take in but now I absolutely love it!

You see I’m a snacker. A big one, so I love knowing that I have a snack coming up in a few hours again. It helps me hold off on the random eating that I tend to do through out the day. One of the meals that I used for lunch was this delicious Pressure Cooker Beef Taco Soup!

I also love this meal plan because I can still eat “normal food” instead of some of those diets! It’s a weight lifting program so it’s high on protein and veggies on low on carbs and fruit. I love carbs and fruit so that’s a bit of a pain in my rear but it’s been going better than I thought it would!
Apparently it’s working to because I just got to measure and weigh and I’m down 8 inches and 4 pounds in 28 days!
This Instant Pot Beef Taco Soup was on repeat for lunches because it made a ton and I loved it. I wasn’t really complaining at all! I treated my parents to some of the leftovers and they brought the empty bowl back hoping I’d refill it I’m pretty sure!
I was so scared to try using my pressure cooker at first, just like I’m assuming some of you are/were too! When I finally started using it I wondered what the heck I was waiting for!
One of my favorite recipes so far is Pressure Cooker Hamburger Stroganoff, which is the most popular recipe on my site right now! I also love Pressure Cooker Spaghetti with Meat Sauce. The flavor of spaghetti in the pressure cooker is amazing! Oh, and I just posted these Pressure Cooker French Dip Sandwiches too!
On this eating plan spaghetti isn’t really on it so add zoodles to a few noodles to sneak my vegetables in there. Uh, hello what on earth took me so long to make zoodles? Seriously, they are amazing! When I add them to pasta it helps me feel like I’m eating the “real deal” so I don’t even miss not having it be all pasta.
The girls adore them too. They are so funny. In the summer they are always searching the garden for zucchini and begging me to make it. I often wonder when that will change and suddenly I’ll be begging them to eat their vegetables!
One thing I haven’t got them to embrace yet is anything with a bit of spice like this Instant Pot Beef Taco Soup! Guess that just means more for Mom!
If you are cooking for 1-2 people this would freeze great too!

Julie, just saw this message and am so excited. My husband and Just discussed purchasing a pressure cooker for making meals and now I know you have some great looking meals to test. I began our research after the kids were off to bed and found an overwhelming amount of options. I have been around pressure cookers all my life as my mother canned almost everything in the garden and all her kids were involved in prep and eventually as age allowed the actual canning, this included monitoring pressure and switching out cookers on the stove. So fear of using one is not a concern as I have been taught by a master canner.
Not sure if you are willing to answer the following questions but was wondering what size and brand you use and how long you have been using it
Julie Evink says
This is the one I use – Instant Pot DUO60 6 Qt 7-in-1 Multi-Use Programmable Pressure Cooker – I’ve been using it for 1-2 years? I’m not sure how long! I don’t know if you can actually can in these though? I still do the hot water bath on the stove when I can (which isn’t often!).
Danielle Green says
Love the avocado on top! Going to try this soon!
Julie Evink says
A topping must!

Love all the ideas in this post. I’ve never heard of 80 day obsession but if it’s weights and not a bunch of running I’m in. I hate running! Also, love the idea of mixing zoodles with some pasta!! Genius! Also, this is one of our favorite soups!
Julie Evink says
I HATE cardio of any kind!
