Instant Pot Hearty Lentil & Vegetable Stew

Rinse the lentils under cold water.

In the Instant Pot, combine the lentils, chopped carrots, diced celery, diced onion, diced tomatoes, vegetable broth, garlic, cumin, and smoked paprika. Stir well.

Secure the lid and set the valve to 'Sealing'. Select 'Pressure Cook' (or 'Manual') on high pressure for 15 minutes.

Once the cooking time is complete, let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes, then carefully release any remaining pressure.

Stir in the fresh spinach until wilted. Season with salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon juice before serving.
