if you thouGht we’d get you through winter without a classic, cozy lentil soup, think again. Lentils will always have their day with us. You’ve been well-schooled about this unsuspecting legume’s A list appeal. To refresh, lentils are a nutrient-dense powerhouse jam-packed with fiber, protein, B vitamins, magnesium, potassium, zinc, calcium and iron. Hearty enough to be the star of the show for dinner and perfect to pack for work tomorrow to side-step afternoon slump.

There are some classics better left untouched — unless that touch is the press of an InstantPot button. This simple, cozy recipe from Coco Morante’s The Ultimate Instant Pot Healthy Cookbook includes some zing with a dollop of tomato paste. Chop. Toss. Press button. Savage.
