The best White Bean Pumpkin Turkey Chili recipe (slow cooker or Instant Pot) made with pumpkin puree, ground turkey and green peppers and spices.
Turkey Pumpkin White Bean Chili
This is my favorite White Bean Turkey Pumpkin Chili recipe!! A perfect fall chili made with pumpkin puree, ground turkey, white beans, green peppers and spices. Top it with chopped fresh cilantro, scallions, jalapeño or cheddar and serve it with baked chips for a great lunch or dinner. You can make it in crock pot or instant pot. For a tomato-based version, try this Turkey Pumpkin Chili recipe.
This Pumpkin Turkey Chili turns out great in the slow cooker! Pumpkin isn’t sweet at all, in fact, if you don’t mention it, no one will even know it’s there, but it adds beautiful color and creaminess to chili and, for picky eaters, to veggies. A great way to get in.
As far as heat goes it is quite mild, if you want more kick then use chipotle chili powder in place of chili powder and use it as per your taste. Leftovers can be frozen, enjoy!
White Bean Pumpkin Turkey Chili Ingredients:
