Notes

*Mushrooms release a good amount of liquid, so it’s really important not to omit in this recipe.
** I think this would be great with bacon or sausage, too! Read post above for tips.
*** *While the cook time is 15 minutes, it does take time for the Instant Pot to come to pressure, THEN it will start the count down from 15.
