How do I store my leftover taco soup?
Placed the cooled soup in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Can I freeze taco soup?
Yes! Place the soup in a covered airtight container or heavy-duty freezer bag. Properly stored, the soup will be good for up to 6 months.
Please Note
The Instant Pot needs to come to pressure before the cooking time starts, similar to an oven that needs to preheat. The cooking time doesn’t actually start until pressure builds, which can take anywhere from 5-15 minutes, sometimes longer depending on how full the pot is and how much liquid there is inside. Once it reaches pressure the Instant Pot will beep, and the cook time will begin to count down. Please, make sure to consider that extra time when planning your meal.
