As the leaves begin to change coloUrs there’s nothing quite like the comfort of a hearty bowl of chili to welcome the fall season. But this time, we’re taking chili to a whole new level. Say hello to my Turkey, Pumpkin, and White Bean Chili.
This amazing chili is made with lean ground turkey, veggies, white beans and just a hint of pure pumpkin which adds a nice creaminess to the chili. Pumpkin hater? Simply omit, but I promise, you won’t taste even taste the pumpkin. And the best part? It all comes together effortlessly in your trusty crockpot. Plus this chili is big. You’ll have leftovers all week.
So, get ready to cozy up, fill your home with the inviting aroma of a simmering chili, and indulge in a bowl of goodness that’s super tasty and good for your well-being. Fall in love with chili all over again.
