Turkey Pumpkin Chili Slow Cooker Recipe

August 26, 2019

Turkey pumpkin chili is a great fall dinner that can be made in the slow cooker. Chili is one of my favorite cool weather meals and since it’s fall, pumpkin is everywhere! 

This chili is made without tomatoes, so it’s a bit different from your normal chili. We like it so much that it just might give my Simple Turkey Chili a run for its money.

A-Maze-Ing

November 17, 2012

 

Well friends, just because Halloween is behind us don’t think you have no use for pumpkin patches until next year.  Many of them, like this one, grow amazing varieties of squash. 
Everyone knows how I feel about supporting local farmers and buying food that was locally grown whenever possible, so I will refrain from going on and on about it today… but, just in case you don’t:
