Pumpkin Turkey Chili.

My husband suggested I blog about this delicious Turkey Pumpkin Chili I've made a few times since Jennifer blogged her recipe a few months ago. Here is my version with a few different twists. I cook by taste so if my directions appear haphazard, it's because they are. I assure you this chili isn't too pumpkin-y. I even made it once with sweet potato puree once and my husband didn't even notice the difference :)


Enjoy!


First you will need one or two assistants. One will do fine. I just prefer two.

Turkey Pumpkin Chili

INGREDIENTS:
olive oil
chopped onion (as much as you like)
2 chopped bell peppers (I buy whatever looks good, this time I used red and yellow)
1 clove garlic
1 pound ground turkey
2 cans of white beans (or your bean of choice)
1 large can diced tomatoes
1 large can pumpkin puree
chili powder, paprika, salt and black pepper to taste

TOP WITH
shredded Cheddar cheese
sour cream

DIRECTIONS
Saute the onion, green bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, and garlic in olive oil until tender. Stir in the turkey and cook until evenly brown (Vegetarians can skip this step and add extra beans). Mix in tomatoes and pumpkin. Season with chili powder, paprika, pepper, and salt. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer 15-20 minutes. Serve topped with Cheddar cheese and sour cream.

It's so good isn't it and so versatile! I love your version!! Looks like you have some very handy sous chefs too!!

I made something similiar to this and it turned out BAD! I think I had too much chili and not enough chili-ness. I love sour cream on top of soups like this or taco soup-yum!

This sounds so interesting! I may just have to give it a go. And, I love your music posts, but I'm just the most UNCOOL person ever when it comes to music. No really... :)

I've made something similar, and I agree, it is so good. Love your accompanying photos!
