SWEET POTATOES LENTILS SOUP – super high in protein vegan friendly creamy soup
I have been seeing so much effervescence for the instant pot that I felt obligated to get one and try it by myself. Basically it’s a fancy pressure cooker but it’s very cool. I like that you don’t have to stay next to it when cooking something or how fast it will cook a stew or vegetables. I cooked this recipe in 6 minutes using the “pressure cooking” mode.
When I was looking for recipes, I absolutely wanted to try some with sweet potatoes. Let me know how cool is it to cook sweet potatoes in 10 minutes… Priceless!
This recipes calls for lots of ingredients but it’s worth it. All the flavors are incredible together and this stew/soup gets only better the following days.
