Since I already loved the flavors in this Slow Cooker Beef and Broccoli and this Mongolian Healthy Beef and Broccoli (which is Paleo if that’s something you are seeking), I decided to see if I could combine the recipe forces to create a Mongolian Instant Pot beef and broccoli recipe that would give me the same taste with even less fuss....
