Instant Pot Dal

If you've been paying attention, you've noticed a lot of new Contentedness Cooking recipes. Two reasons: delicious and EASY! Generally, I'm also getting excited about the uptick in #InstantPot vegan recipes out there.


Things I changed:


  • Swapped in cayenne since I forgot to buy chilis. Should have done half the amount I put in though. VERY spicy.

  • Swapped in cherry tomatoes instead of 4 regular tomatoes since I forgot those, too.

  • Served with na'an, because I like na'an. Deal with it.

  • Added avocado slices for garnish, because I had one on hand that was about to go past its best ripeness.
