Expert Tips
- Top with shredded Colby-Jack cheese, sour cream, chopped fresh cilantro or green onions.
- We used extra-lean ground beef in this recipe, so there’s no need to drain the beef after cooking.
- When releasing pressure naturally, it’s always a good idea to set the pressure valve to VENTING after the float valve drops down, just to be sure all of the pressure has been released.
