Instant pot lentil tacos

Step by Step

Step 1

Place all ingredients into the Instant Pot and mix to combine.

Step 2

Place the lid on the Instant Pot, seal the vent, and set the Instant Pot to manual > high > and set the timer to 15 minutes*. It will take your Instant Pot around 5 to 10 minutes to build pressure before it starts to count down from 15.

Step 3

Once the timer goes off, open the vent to quick release and let the steam pour out. Once the Instant Pot unlocks, open the lid and stir.

Step 4

Let sit for around 5 to 10 minutes before serving. Serve with all of your favorite taco fixings.

Tips and Warnings

Cook Time: If your lentils are still a little crunchy after 15 minutes in the Instant Pot, close the lid and cook for an additional 2 minutes at a time until they’ve reached your desired texture. As the lentils sit, they will absorb more moisture and thicken.
Storage: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Enjoy cold or reheat for homemade tacos anytime!
Freezer Instructions: Transfer individual servings of lentil tacos to freezer cubes or any freezer-safe container you’d like to use. Freeze for up to 3 months, then thaw and reheat before serving.
1.5 cups vegetable broth (or any kind of broth or water)
