This is now my goto for lentil soup. I can cut the recipe in half, double it, and it works out super every time. Sometimes after venting I throw in spinach and wilt it before adding the bacon and parsley, and it’s a big hit.
Good stuff. Thanks.

My husband grew up eating lentils and has asked me to make them for years. I got an Instant Pot and found Amy and Jacky’s recipes and that lentils received high ratings. I was never a fan of lentils, but I loved this recipe and my husband said these were the best lentils he ever ate. Easy to make and wonderful to eat!

Such an incredibly warm and comforting bowl! The cumin + fish sauce mix add so much depth of flavor that I can easily eat bowl after bowl. I didn’t have a can of crushed tomatoes but instead sautéed 1tsp tomato paste in olive oil and added a pint of cherry tomatoes that I crushed with a potato masher and that worked wonderfully. I feel like this will be my go to lentil recipe all winter, thank you so much for all your recipes!

One of my favorite recipes, lentils!!! I also added kielbasa. It has your protein, fiber, and vegetables covered. I served it over rice, with some avocado on the side.

What a wonderful soup! I didn’t even know that I liked lentil soup until I made this (at my husband’s urging) when the weather turned cool last fall. I’ve made it several times since then, and we’ve loved it every time. One time I had no bacon but I did have sweet sausage links, and I used them instead with great results. Thanks, Amy + Jacky, for another fabulous recipe, one that will stay in my rotation!

I looked at a few IP lentil soup recipes and settled on this one because I had all the ingredients (minus the bacon!) and it was DELICIOUS! And easy. I just sauteed the onions and garlic (I also sauteed the carrots and celery too, even though the recipe says to dump those 2 ingredients in) in extra virgin olive oil. Shared some with my mom who isn’t as familiar with lentil soup and she loved it and wanted the recipe. This is a keeper for sure!

After a holiday gastronomy fest, I needed to eat something vegetarian and made Amy+Jacky’s lentil soup in the IP. Another wonderful success. I did the dump version and also subbed soy sauce for the fish sauce and added a bit of veg bouillon, and the soup was hearty and delicious. I’m really enjoying my IP😀

My daughter had her wisdom teeth removed so I made lentils in my instant pot.
I modified the recipe to be vegan by substituting it with vegetable broth, not adding sausage and fish sauce. I added a sweet potato, 2 red potatoes and sliced spinach at the end. Yum
