    Perfect Autumn Secret Ingredient Chili

    As soon as those leaves start falling, I’m busting out the crockpot and whipping up chili.  But the same chili recipe sometimes gets old and even this chili lovin’ momma needs to switch it up.  My kiddos are decent with eating veggies but I try to pack them in wherever I can.  I added two cups finely minced spinach to this crockpot as well as 1/2 cup of pumpkin too.  Everyone loved it.  I was pleasantly surprised with the reaction- not that I thought they wouldn’t like it, but with the sneaky nutrients I packed in there, there were no complaints!  Here’s the recipe!  Ingredients:  1 lb lean ground turkey…

    Turkey Pumpkin Chili

    Sweet & Savory Turkey Pumpkin Chili I don’t know if I’m the only one who cooks like this, but I’ll start thinking up a recipe a week or so before I make it.  I literally let it simmer in my brain.  I think of things I want to add to it, how I want it to taste, what the texture and consistency should be.  Then I get hangry.  I start with the mouthwatering, drooling stuff. And I know I have to make it.  Today I intended to make a chicken butternut squash soup in the crockpot but life got in the way and was saving this chili for the weekend…
