Fall is Chili time, but chili with a pumpkin?

Chili and fall go hand in hand. When you add pumpkin to the recipe it makes it even better and the perfect fall dinner recipe. While my chili was cooking I headed outside with my family and got to spend some time playing in the backyard in the fall air and came it to have dinner ready and my house smelling amazing! If you love chili as much as I do then make sure to check out all my other chili recipes next.

Once the chili is cooked allow to cool completely. Place the chili in a large freezer bag or freezer container. Leave in the freezer for up to 6 months.

To reheat allow to thaw in the fridge. Place in the slow cooker for 1-2 hours until heated through or heat over medium heat in a pot on the stovetop until heated through.

    1. Once your ground beef is cooked and all your ingredients are in a large pot I would bring to a boil then reduce and allow to simmer for 30-45 mins.

  1. Made this today for extended family. My grandkids LOVED it, as did the rest of the family. I used frozen pumpkin, which I drained and pureed; didn’t have any bell peppers, so just made it without. It’s a keeper.

  2. Hi, do you drain the beans and rinse them? Or do you ue the liquid in the chili from the can? Any recommendations for. Substitute for allspice?

    1. Hi Amber! I used a can of that came with a blend of kidney, pinto, and black beans. You can add the same amount of any bean you enjoy! I hope you like this recipe!

    1. Hi Eileen! This chili should make a good 6 servings. Are referring to weight watchers points? I am not sure how many this is. I don’t do weight watchers and I am not sure how they calculate points. Hope you enjoy the recipe!

  3. Hey so Iโ€™m just a bit confused. I was on my way to shop for the ingredients for this recipe and realized you havenโ€™t put any measurements for the actual pumpkin purรฉe.

    1. Thanks Anna! I must have messed something up during editing but it has been updated! I add 1 15 oz can to the chili of pumpkin Puree. Hope you enjoy it!
