Instant Pot Thai Inspired Low Carb Beef Noodle Soup. Cutting carbohydrates down is fast easy with a pressure cooker and low carb shirataki noodles.
I’m living the low carb life folks! That’s right, its time for me to drop a few pounds (well more than a few) and for me cutting the carbs is the easiest way for me to do it. I’ve been eating low carb for just over a week now and so far I’ve dropped 8 pounds. Delicious recipes like this make it easy to stick to a diet.
I started with a beef blade roast. it’s a cut from the shoulder which is a tough cut of meat that normally takes a long time to cook. That’s where the pressure cooker comes in. All I did was cut the meat into cubes, brown it on the saute setting in the Instant Pot Pressure cooker,
add chicken stock, ginger and fish sauce. Then I set the Instant Pot pressure cooker to the beef, stew setting – the Instant Pot takes about 10 minutes to come up to pressure, then it cooks for 35 minutes and you get incredibly tender beef. Once the beef is cooked set the Instant Pot back to saute, add vegetables and shirataki noodles and there you have it. A delicious, Instant Pot Thai Inspired Low Carb Beef Noodle Soup on a weeknight.
Many people are afraid they won’t be able to enjoy noodles on a low carb diet, rest assured you can. I prefer the Miracle Noodle brand of Shirataki Noodles but it’ hard to find in stores lately. Here’s a link to check it out on Amazon.

I’m cooking for my husband and my son who both have large appetites so it isn’t a 4 cup serving it’s a 4 – 6 large bowl serving. I also like to have leftovers so I cook big. I should have reflected this in the recipe. You can always cook a smaller piece of beef if that suits your needs. Thanks for reading
