Vegetable Chop Suey with Rice

Are you looking for a delicious and easy-to-make vegetable chop suey recipe served over rice? Look no further! This mouth-watering dish is perfect for any occasion, whether it's a quick weeknight dinner or a special celebration.

The key to this recipe is using the Instant Pot to cook the vegetables and meat simultaneously. Simply melt some lard or other fat in the Instant Pot set to sauté, then add your choice of vegetables (such as garlic, bell pepper, mushrooms, onion, celery, and snow peas) along with some salt and pepper.

Once the vegetables are softened, you can turn off the heat and set them aside for later. Next, cook your meat of choice (beef stew meat or chicken breast work well) in the Instant Pot until it's tender. This will take about an hour, but you can also cook it ahead of time if you prefer.

To make the rice, simply add 1 cup of uncooked rice to the Instant Pot with 2 cups of water and turn it on. The Instant Pot will do all the work for you, cooking the rice to perfection in just a few minutes.

When it's time to serve, place your cooked vegetables over a bed of hot rice and top with your choice of meat or noodles. You can also add some soy sauce, ginger, and Chinese spices to give it an extra boost of flavor.

This recipe is a spin-off of my mom's classic chop suey recipe, which was passed down from her mother and grandmother. It's a delicious and comforting dish that's sure to become a family favorite.
