Pumpkin Turkey Chili

Recipe Courtesy of SOMEONESWT from allrecipes.com

This recipe turned out o.k. The pumpkin flavor was a bit overwhelming and made the chili consistency funky. In addition to the recipe, I added: corn, kidney beans, and pinto beans.

Ingredients:

• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1 cup chopped onion
• 1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper
• 1/2 cup chopped yellow bell pepper
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1 pound ground turkey
• 1 (14.5 oz can) diced tomatoes
• 2 cups pumpkin puree
• 1 1/2 tablespoons chili powder
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• dash salt
• cheese, sour cream, and chives for toppings

Directions:

1. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat, and saute the onion, green bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, and garlic until tender. Stir in the turkey, and cook until evenly brown. Drain, and mix in tomatoes and pumpkin. Season with chili powder, pepper, and salt. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer 20 minutes. Serve topped with Cheddar cheese and sour cream.
