Instant Pot Lentil Chili

Again, lentils do not photograph well. They are brown and don’t look good, but they are oh.so.tasty! I LOVE Lentils. I think I’ve been singing the praises of Lentils for awhile now. Seriously, if you have not tried lentils yet, do it! You won’t regret it.

We wanted some lentil chili and cornbread this time. YUM! It turned out great. Sweet Potato is always such a good addition to lentils. Just toss a sweet potato in for extra deliciousness and added vitamins! Lentils and sweet potato are a marriage made in dinner heaven!

 

Ingredients:

  • 1 chopped onion
  • 1 chopped sweet potato
  • 3-4 cloves of minced garlic
  • 2 chopped carrots
  • 1 celery stalk (optional – I don’t like celery)
  • 1 tbsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp coriander
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • 1/2 tsp dry mustard
  • 1 15oz can tomatoes
