Spicy Pumpkin Beef Chili
Ingredients
  • 2 pounds ground beef
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 1 green bell pepper, diced
  • 2 (15 ounce) cans kidney beans, drained
  • 1 (46 fluid ounce) can tomato juice
  • 1 (28 ounce) can peeled and diced tomatoes with juice
  • 1/2 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1/4 cup white sugar
Instructions
1
Heat a large container over an intermediate temperature until the beef is nicely browned and resembles breadcrumbs, approximately 5 to 7 minutes; discard excess liquid.
2
Combine the chopped onion and sliced bell pepper; sauté and mix for 5 minutes. Introduce the beans, tomato juice, diced tomatoes, and pumpkin puree into the mixture. Add a pinch of pumpkin pie spice, chili powder, and sugar to enhance the flavor. Allow the chili to simmer until it has thickened and the flavors have melded together, roughly 1 hour.
