Season stew meat with salt and pepper, then sprinkle flour and toss to coat beef.
Heat pressure cooker to sauté, add a couple tablespoons of oil, and when hot sear stew meat on all sides to brown.
Add a little more oil, then the onions and garlic, and after a couple minutes the carrots and celery.
Give them a couple minutes to soften then add the Veggie Soiree, thyme, garlic powder, onion powder, and beef bouillon.
Add seared beef (and all its juices), potatoes, collard greens, and mushrooms. Stir well, put on lid, set to high pressure and cook for 25-30 minutes.
