This Instant Pot Chili recipe is full of meaty goodness in this easy to make recipe that utilizes the hottest kitchen appliance trend: the electric pressure cooker.
This recipe comes from the fabulous new Electric Pressure Cooker Cookbook from my friend Barbara Schieving over at www.PressureCookingToday.com .

It comes with detailed instructions and tips for using any brand of electric pressure cooker and teaches you how to maximize this fabulous kitchen appliance. It also contains a full collection of amazing recipes.
Chili Con Carne is a classic chili option that can really hit the spot on a cold day. It’s full of meat, beans, and a whole lot of flavor. Tortilla chips are used as a thickening agent in this chili which is pretty genius because tortilla chips also make a great garnish for chili as well.
