Pumpkin Chili

What's better on a crisp fall evening than a warm bowl of spicy Chili? Pumpkin Chili!! Now I'm sure some of you are thinking Pumpkin? In Chili!?! But I promise you it's so good. It lends kind of a creamy texture to the chili making it a richer fuller flavor! I don't think you really taste the pumpkin over much, it's really kind of hidden behind the spices! Give it a try! I also like that it boosts the nutritional value of the meal!

Here's what you'll need:

1lb ground Beef

1 can Pumpkin Purée 

2 cans Tomatoe Sauce

1 can Black Beans

1 can Kidney Beans

Chili Powder

Onion Powder

Garlic Powder

Salt & Pepper to Taste

Here's how you make it:

In a large skillet brown the ground Beef until it is no longer pink. Add in the pumpkin, Tomatoe sauce and the beans, stir. Then add in your spices, stirring until they are combined. Let the Chili simmer for at least 30minutes so the flavors have time to develop. Serve with a dollop of sour cream and some shredded cheese!

Enjoy
