Instant Pot Chipotle Lentil Soup (Topped with Zoodles): easy, filling and extremely delicious Instant-pot soup made with mixed lentils, smoked chipotle seasoning, vegetable broth and topped with zoodles. It makes an easy-peasy meal/office lunch and can be kept in the fridge for 3 days. It’s been so dreary and breezy in the bay since past few days that this warm, bubbling Instant Pot Chipotle Lentil Soup topped with Zoodles has become one of our MOST Favorite Weekday Meal!
A) It’s so easy to make in an instant pot/pressure cooker
B) It’s absolutely healthy and refreshingly delicious.
After a completely BINGED holiday season (which started Oct and lasted Dec), we have increased the intake of plant proteins + veggies in our meal.
It not only gives us the needed energy along with benefits to go through the day but also helps us feel full yet light.
Both Mr. and I prefer sandwiches/salad/smoothies for lunches and slightly filling dinner which this Instant Pot Chipotle Lentil Soup (topped with Zoodles) totally qualifies.
And trust me, after a long day, when you think of this ‘INSTANT-POT’ hot meal with least efforts involved – It’s like you’ve won a Jackpot!!!
Okay, not exactly the same but kinda close – like the Next BEST THING 😉
Now, we love the soup as it is but topping it with zoodles makes it extra filling and adds so much to the flavors too.
I was just being too creative and drew ‘hearts on his and circles on mine’ using some coconut milk that was lying in the fridge.
You don’t have to do that 😉
If Cooking this recipe in Traditional Pressure Cooker, simply follow the same instructions you use to make any lentil or bean soups.
But I’d definitely RECOMMEND Adding this soup to your weeknight menu for a healthy and delicious family meal.

This sounds so incredible Molly. I love Chipotle and lentils especially in this cold weather. This is absolute comfort food. Looks so creamy and inviting. I’ve recently been really enjoying my spiralizer with the kids too.

It has been dreary, hasn’t it? This looks like just the way to warm up (you know, along with the extra socks and sweaters I’ve been living in. Seriously though, anything chipotle and I’m down.
