INSTANT POT ROAST BEEF DINNER

2020-12-09 · YouTube · Foodie Beauty · 26 min

Chantal (Foodie Beauty) shares a personal vlog-style video where she discusses recent digestive issues and supplements, shows a grocery pickup, cooks an Instant Pot roast beef dinner (eye of round) with oven-roasted potatoes and carrots, and drives through a well-decorated Ottawa street (Taffy Lane) to look at Christmas lights. She demonstrates seasoning and pressure-cooking the roast, uses beef bouillon and Bragg's liquid seasoning, and tastes the finished meal with gravy. Pets (Sam and other cats) appear throughout. She closes by joining Pete for dinner and mentioning popcorn for later.
