Autumn Pumpkin Chili
Found a new recipe that sounded good - Autumn Pumpkin Chili. I thought it turned out great … once again however I was in the minority! Some of the feedback I received was:
- “Can you make this when I’m going out with friends?"
- “Can you make this when I’m not home?"
- “Can I be done?"
Needless to say - I took the leftovers to my parents. They always appreciate the new recipes I try :) Regardless what my family says, I think this is a great recipe that breaks away from the norm. It is also a healthy meal - which I’m trying to lean towards now. If you’re interested, I’ve included the recipe below.
