Football and Pumpkin Chili Keeps the Chill Off!

Had to share this one again in honor of the Superbowl!

Enjoy!

Caveman Friendly (cornbread muffins optional!)

1lb. ground beef
half a medium onion (chopped)
2 15oz. cans kidney beans (drained)
15oz. cans stewed or diced tomatoes (with juice)
8oz. can tomato sauce
1 cup pumpkin
chili powder, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, brown sugar (all “to taste”)
In a large pot, brown onions and ground beef. Once cooked, add the pumpkin, kidney beans, tomatoes & sauce. For the spices, I added everything “to taste”–starting with (about) 2 tsp. chili powder and 1 tsp. pumpkin pie spice, a sprinkle of cinnamon and brown sugar. Let simmer for 30 minutes to 1 hour (stirring occasionally). I ended up adding a little more chili powder & pumpkin pie spice.
Serve with pumpkin cornbread muffins for an extra good, cheap, eat!
