Simmer down now!  We used Simply Organic Southwest Taco Simmer Sauce to make this easy Instant Pot Red Lentil Tortilla Soup. This little packet packs a lot of flavor; it’s filled with warm notes of chili, rich and fragrant cumin, tangy tomato and a touch of herbaceous flavor thanks to oregano. The best part? All you have to do is toss the whole thing in the Instant Pot with some red lentils, a few veggies, some stock and diced tomatoes and you have dinner on the table in 30 minutes.  Simply Organic Simmer Sauces are Organic, Non-GMO, contain no artificial colors or flavors and are all vegan-based. Our favorite part? They make getting a flavorful dinner on the table a total breeze!
