Ingredients

3 pounds frozen ground beef
5 cups water, divided
4 teaspoons beef base, or more to taste, divided
2 (15.25 ounce) cans whole kernel corn, drained
2 (14.5 ounce) cans green beans, drained
2 (14.5 ounce) cans diced tomatoes
1 (15 ounce) can peas

Steps:

Combine frozen ground beef, 1 cup water, and 1 teaspoon beef base in a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®). Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 20 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, 10 to 40 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.
While pressure is releasing, mix remaining 4 cups water with remaining 3 teaspoons beef base in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high for 2 minutes; stir until well blended.
Drain liquid from the Instant Pot®. Break up ground beef into smaller pieces. Add corn, green beans, diced tomatoes, and peas. Pour in water-beef base mixture and select Saute function. Cook until heated through, 5 to 10 minutes.
