A Cozy Valentine’s Night In with Canadian Beef

This Instant Pot Beef Stroganoff is rich, comforting, and elegant in the simplest way. Made with tender Canadian stew beef from Halenda’s Meats, it’s the kind of dish that feels special while still being easy enough for a weeknight.
Creamy mushroom sauce, perfectly cooked beef, and classic stroganoff flavours come together in one pot. Light a candle, pour a glass of wine, and let dinner take care of itself.
