I know I can pull a vector file into my current project using:
vlayer = iface.addVectorLayer(r"S:/Data/Natural_Earth_quick_start/110m_cultural/ne_110m_admin_0_countries.shp", "admin", "ogr")
But if I create my layer using something like:
vlayer = QgsVectorLayer(r"S:/Data/Natural_Earth_quick_start/110m_cultural/ne_110m_admin_0_countries.shp", "admin", "ogr")
and then I do some processing on vlayer
how do I then add it to the current project or map layers list?

Can you expand on what you mean by "processing"? Editing the layer such as modifying features, running a tool from the processing toolbox etc? Or do you mean something like:QgsProject.instance().addMapLayer(vlayer)
?

To add an existing single layer:
vlayer = QgsVectorLayer("some/path/to/shapefile.shp", "admin", "ogr")
QgsProject.instance().addMapLayer(vlayer)
To add existing multiple layers:
vlayer1 = QgsVectorLayer("some/path/to/shapefile1.shp", "admin1", "ogr")
vlayer2 = QgsVectorLayer("some/path/to/shapefile2.shp", "admin2", "ogr")
layers = [vlayer1 , vlayer2]
QgsProject.instance().addMapLayers(layers)
