Equipment

  • Instant Pot or similar pressure cooker

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tbsp avocado oil
  • 8 hot dogs Make sure to check label for carbs
  • 1/2 medium onion minced
  • 1 tbsp minced garlic
  • 4 tbsp chili powder
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder Check label for carbs
  • 1.5 tbsp ground cumin
  • 1 rounded tsp dried oregano
  • 1 rounded tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ground allspice
  • 1/4 tsp ground cloves
  • 1 14.5 ounce can tomato sauce
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 1.5 pounds ground beef 85/15
  • 3 ounces shredded cheddar
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Turn your instant pot on the Saute setting and add the oil. Chop the hot dogs into bite-sized pieces and mince the onion. Add them to the Instant Pot and saute until the onion is soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • While the hot dogs and onions cook, mix together the chili powder, cocoa powder, cumin, cinnamon, oregano, allspice, and cloves in a small bowl and set aside.
  • When the onions are cooked, add the garlic and saute for about a minute, then pour in the spices and toss to coat and toast the spices for a minute more. Pour in the broth and tomato sauce and bring to a boil, then crumble in the uncooked ground beef. Stir to break up the clumps of beef.
  • Put the lid on the Instant Pot and set it for the soup setting (or, if using a different pressure cooker, set for 30 minutes on high). When the timer goes off, use a manual release, and remove the lid once it's safe to do so.
  • Set the pot for Saute again, then stir in the cheddar cheese until it's melted. Taste and add salt and pepper as needed. Garnish with shredded cheddar, chopped onion, and a bit of mustard before serving.
