Red Lentil Chili by Chef AJ 
P 
reperation: 
Blend the 
dates, garlic, 
red bell pep-
per and to-
matoes in a blender 
until smooth.  
Place all remaining 
ingredients in Instant 
Pot and cook on high 
for 10 minutes. 
Let pressure release 
naturally or quick re-
lease and enjoy imme-
diately. Served over a 
baked potato and 
sprinkled with some 
faux parmesan, this absolutely rocks!!!  
Faux Parmesan  
This is much more economical 
than the store bought version 
Ingredients: 
1 - cup raw nuts or seeds or a 
combination (e.g. walnuts, 
almonds, sunflower seeds) 
1/2 cup nutritional yeast 
1 Tablespoon salt-free season-
ing (I prefer Benson’s Table 
Tasty) 
Preparation:  
In a food processor fitted with the “S” blade or in a blend-
er, combine all ingredients until a powdery texture is 
achieved. If you like it more chunky, process less. 
Chef AJ’s Note:  
You can also use store bought almond flour in place of the almonds. We use this on 
everything from air popped popcorn to potatoes to steamed veggies and as a topping 
on chili and soups.
