Instant Pot Mongolian beef with quinoa and brown rice is definitely a recipe that you should check out! The majority of my recipes are quick and easy dishes to help support a busy lifestyle. Most of my recipes are also meal-prep friendly, meaning the ingredients used within the recipe are items that work well when reheated as leftovers. I purchased my Instant Pot so that I could branch out a little bit. I absolutely love to meal prep because it saves me so much time. But, what about those moments when I have to whip up something quick on a weeknight? It would be nice to have weeknight dinner meal options. When I order Chinese delivery, it usually takes 45 minutes to arrive. This recipe can be completed in well under 30 minutes. It also promises yummy leftovers for the rest of the week!

This is another one of my lifestyle recipes. This recipe includes brown sugar and rice wine vinegar which increases the sugar and carbs macro count. This recipe may not be the best option for weight-loss. However, it is perfect for lifestyle maintenance. Being health-conscious and committing to a healthy lifestyle is a long-term decision. It opens the door to so many different options for food and loosens up a lot of restrictions. I would suggest removing the quinoa and brown rice from this recipe if weight loss is your goal. This saves 18 grams of carbs per serving.

I saved additional time by using organic, pre-packaged quinoa and brown rice.
