Instructions
- Place the lentils, vegetable broth, salsa, and spices in the base of an instant pot or pressure cooker and seal. Hit the manual button and cook on high pressure for 16 minutes.
- Quick release, then stir. Add the salt, then taste to adjust. Depending on the saltiness of your broth, then you may need more or less salt. I typically use a low-sodium broth and then add salt to taste.
- Serve on warmed tortillas with toppings of choice.
