Instant Pot Chunky Soup

The cold weather is upon us whether you like it or not (even though some of us might still be in denial mode🙄). So why not embrace the cup thats half full instead of the one thats half empty and work your way through the cold seasons with some heartwarming, satisfying suppers.

Here’s one that you need to try.

By the way, it's a total kid winner dinner! I blended it up and my kids had it two days in a row!!

• 1 small onion

• 2 cloves of garlic

• 3 carrots

• 4 cubes frozen spinach

• 2 potatoes

• 1 can diced tomatoes (746 ml), drained

• 1 cup lentils

• 1/2 can chickpeas (about 270 ml)

• 1 container of chicken broth (946 ml)

• About 1 cup of water

• 1 tsp sugar

• Salt, to taste

• 1 tsp cumin

• 1 tsp paprika

1. Start by finely dicing the onion, carrots and potatoes.

2. Turn on your Instant Potto the “saute” mode and saute onion and full cloves of garlic until translucent. In this order, add carrots, spinach, potatoes, diced tomatoes, lentils and chickpeas.

3. Let everything saute for about 5 minutes, mixing a few times in between.

4. Add broth, water and spices. Mix and switch to “pressure cooker” mode.

5. Close the instant pot and set the timer for 20 min on a high pressure. Make sure the vent is set on sealing.

6. When the time is up, release the pressure by turning it to venting. Then open and enjoy your meal!

Enjoy,
