Equipment

  • Instant Pot

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pound Russet potatoes washed, peeled and cut into 1 inch pieces
  • 1 medium head of cauliflower (about 3-4 cups) washed and cut into florets
  • 1 cup broth
  • 1 tsp salt or to taste
  • 2-3 cloves garlic peeled, or to taste
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil, olive oil or butter or to taste (for Whole30 or Paleo, use coconut or olive oil)
