I created this dish to grab the voters’ attention at a chili contest we held in our backyard. With pumpkin, brown sugar and cooked turkey, it’s like an entire Thanksgiving dinner in one bowl. –Brad Bailey of Cary, North Carolina

Good Autumn recipe - used butternut squash in stead of pumpkin and it makes lots! Freezes well for quick meals on hand

This isn't my favorite chili recipe, but it was pretty good. DH and I liked it but the kids would not eat it.

This recipe has become a regular at my house. I love the thick texture. I've substituted ground turkey at times and that comes out good as well.

I was skepticsl about the pumpkin in chili but thought it was delicious. Great use for leftover turkey breast.

What a great Chili! Cooked ground turkey ads a different texture, but is still great!

We loved this chili! I used cooked ground turkey instead of the cubed. I pureed it for my elderly aunt and she loved it! The whole family says It is so flavorful. It's going to be a regular at our house!
