I have always liked lentil soups and lentil dishes. I have written about Lentil Soup, that was made on a stove top, and about Lentils With Onions, Garlic, Tomatoes, Cumin, Coriander, Turmeric, a delicious vegan lentil side dish.
And then I started to think that it would be great to make lentil soup in an Instant Pot. As lentils take a while to cook on stove top, cooking them in the Instant Pot would be faster and easier.
Plus, when you use the Instant Pot, you don’t have to watch the soup. Once you set the timer for cooking, you can cook something else, and wait for the soup to be cooked in the Instant Pot.
It is very easy to make this vegan Lentil Soup. All you need to do is saute carrots, onions and celery first (I use these three vegetables in pretty much every soup recipe that I make). Then, you will need to add lentils, potatoes and water. Then, you start the Instant Pot, and then, in a bit of time, you will have a delicious lentil soup.
Basically, if you can saute vegetables for a few minutes, you can make a delicious vegan lentil soup. Sounds easy enough to you? Then check out this delicious Instant Pot Lentil Soup recipe! And take a look at more fall dinner ideas, Seven Fall Dinner Ideas.

This looks like a great recipe. Our daughter has transitioned to a plant-based diet and is trying to get us to switch too. I don’t think we’ll go 100% plant-based like she is, but will have several meals a week that are plant-based. This one looks like a great recipe, both for her and us!
Thank you for the post!
Wow! Love this soup and will try it very soon.
