I have always loved a little Mexican inspired cooking. I love the combination of the heat from the chilies and the coolness of limes, sour cream, and Avo. Of course, I also LOVE my Instant Pot, so this is the perfect recipe and without a doubt, my favorite Instant Pot recipe so far.

Sounds amazing! Which brand of “chili salsa” did you use?
I used a ready made one from Woolies but you could also make your own.
