After I minimize into our massive pumpkin to make a jack-o-lantern this yr, the pumpkin smelled so good! It’s a humorous factor about consuming very strictly Paleo: meals that used to odor nice don’t anymore and meals that was once sorta unusual odor FANTASTIC! I resolved to eat that pumpkin along with the pie pumpkins I had already bought.
I wished to strive one thing savory with my new abundance of recent pumpkin and I remembered a recipe posted on www.robbwolf.com for pumpkin chili. The recipe itself wasn’t that inspiring to me, however the thought was! One of many meals that I used to be very unhappy to see go once I totally adopted Paleolithic vitamin was chili (particularly because the climate will get cooler!). So my problem was to create a chili, stuffed with texture and with a taste much like my previous tried and true recipe. That is what I created. It’s a very flavorful, barely candy chili that’s barely harking back to a curry dish and tastes nice by itself (even my husband didn’t attain for the grated cheese and bitter cream!). It’s packed stuffed with nutrient wealthy, low carbohydrate veggies.
