The Best Kid Approved Crockpot Pumpkin Chili

The Best Kid Approved Crockpot Pumpkin ChiliThe perfect fall chili your whole family will love. The Best Kid Approved Crockpot Pumpkin Chili is the perfect Sunday Comfort Food for a chilly fall day (or warm if you’re in Florida.) If you are questioning the whole pumpkin and chili idea–trust me it’s goes perfect together and I’ve been making this chili for 5 years now! So take out all your fall decorations and cook this chili for dinner. 

The Best Kid Approved Crockpot Pumpkin ChiliThe other day as my husband and I were going on our weekly date night (to pick up to go to eat at our house) I told him I could not believe it was October already. Where did the time go? Well, we all know the answer to that–but really it’s shocking to say the least. In March, I took on the task of planting vegetables. I successfully grew eggplants, okra, and many seasonings. This was huge for me as I had never grown any food before–and to see them and eat them was huge.

I decided I would plant Sugar Pie Pumpkins at the end of July, and they sprouted immediately and looked like they were going to produce so many pumpkins. Fast forward a month later, they all had died. Apparently, a disease took over them (thanks 2020) and they were crispy and dead. I had so many recipes planned for those pumpkins–but luckily there’s canned pumpkin until next year. (Except when every store in the area is
out of pumpkin and you can’t find it.)

This chili is sure to be a winner in your family!

He’s a sweet kid, who loves to be silly. He likes his alone time to play, but also loves when his brother plays with him. He surprises me daily with all the things he knows, and I’m so blessed we’re going on our third year of learning together. He loves his baby sister something big, and she puts up with his shenanigans. We all love to watch him play and grow in baseball, and watching his skills develop over the years has been fun!

I kept thinking about party favors, and after chatting with some friends about ideas—decided on this! I loved that I wouldn’t be handing out candy or other items that may end up just thrown away. Also, ice cream was always served with cake as a kid so what better way to get your ice cream later 😉
