Once you cook beets in an Instant Pot, you may never cook them any other way. This salad comes quickly and you only need a few ingredients for maximum flavor. You may need to change the cooking time, depending on the size of your beets. If you aim to buy medium-sized beets (about 2.5 inches in diameter) then the cooking time in the recipe will be accurate.
