    I had this dish waiting to be posted since February.

    We totally fell in love with the flavors but this was most definitely a fall dish.

    Fall has fallen into our laps and here comes a super wholesome pumpkin chili!

    πŸ”ͺ How to make Pumpkin Chili?

    Yes Chilis are prepared with tomato sauce but this one is special because it calls for pureed pumpkin!

    Here is an overview on how this dish comes together.

    The complete recipe is located at the bottom of the post (with an option to print).

    Step 1

    If you use fresh pumpkin, roast it in the oven and puree OR use canned pumpkin puree in the recipe.

    Sautee onion and add ground beef, corn and beans.

    Also add pumpkin puree and tomato sauce with the stock and mix.

    add corn, ground beef and beans to your chili

    Step 2

    Season your chili, mix and cook.

    Step 3

    Take out bay leaf when done and garnish with fresh cilantro.

    Serve up hot.

    πŸ“œ Variations

    You can switch or add some ingredients in this recipe. Here are your options:

    • meat - use ground turkey instead of beef
    • beans - use garbanzo, white, cannellini, or other bean varieties.
    • add cubed sweet potato
    • make it spicier hot by adding hot chili peppers
    • roasted butternut squash instead of pumpkin

    πŸ₯£ Serving Ideas

    We love this chili simply with bread. Sometimes, we serve it up with garlic or pizza bread.

    A simple light green salad works really well with this spiced chili too.

    πŸ’­ FAQs

    Can I freeze my chili?

    Yes you can! Just place it into batch-sized freezer-friendly containers. To warm up again, place into a pot over the stove top and heat up to desired temperature.
