Рецепт Pumpkin Chili with beef
OK, so let me start out by saying, I never thought I was a fan of pumpkin.
Don't get me wrong, I love pumpkin pie, just as much as the other guy.
I just didn't think that I would like it savory. As an experiment I made a Pumpkin Bisque.
Boy was that good!
This recipe came about because I had an extra can of pumpkin.
The hubster was enjoying watching a 49ers game a couple of weekends ago.
I decided to make him some guy food. I think chili is the quintessential guy food meal.
Don't you think?
Anyhow, I tossed that extra can of pumpkin in to the crockpot.
With all the other stuff in the chili, I didn't think that much about it.
Boy was that good.
Everyone kept asking what was in it?
They were very surprised to find out it was pumpkin.
I wonder what other things I can make with pumpkin.
