This vegan lentil chili cooks up in a snap in an Instant Pot. Set out small bowls filled with toppings so each person can garnish their own bowls of chili. I like to serve the chili with diced avocado, sliced jalapeño peppers, chopped cilantro, sliced green onions, and lime wedges.

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

1 medium onions chopped

1 large green bell pepper chopped

3 medium carrots diced

1 jalapeño peppers finely chopped

1 tablespoon ground cumin

1 tablespoon chili powder

2 teaspoons sea salt

1^¾ cups green lentils

2 cups diced tomatoes

2 tablespoons tomato paste

6 cups water

1 small bunch cilantro chopped

Optional Toppings

2 small avocados cubed

2 jalapeño peppers thinly sliced

1 limes cut into wedges

4 green onions sliced into rounds

½ cup chopped cilantro
