Pressure Cooker Beef Stew

The day the stew shown above was made was a good day around Beckmania. On this day our youngest princess came over to the house to spend an afternoon baking and cooking with the Lady of Beckmania. Together they made this wonderful beef stew, an apple crumb pie and the 100% dairy free pecan pie that the young Princess Shelby took home to her manor. The day was rounded out by some Super Mario Party and the Lord of Beckmania snoring on the couch insisting that he was not taking an afternoon nap.
