This easy beef stew can be made in either an Instant Pot or Slow-Cooker. A hearty and savory beef stew with tender beef chunks and your favorite vegetables. A healthy and comforting meal that is gluten-free and dairy-free. It’s perfect for those following the Paleo, Auto-Immune Protocol or Whole30 diet.
