This chili meal prep comes together in the slow cooker and fills your house with warm and comforting Whole30 vibes!
Have you ever had pumpkin chili? It's a great way to use that can of pumpkin puree you bought months ago. Maybe you thought you were going to make pumpkin bread one day. And so maybe that can is lingering in the back of your pantry? (Maybe it's just me...)
Whatever the case, this pumpkin chili meal prep is a healthy recipe made easy; it's a mostly hands-off thanks to the trusty slow cooker. It also makes for a comforting Whole30 meal!
This Crockpot Pumpkin Chili Meal Prep recipe is not only easy, but packed with the best sweet and spicy flavors of fall. It is whole30, gluten-free, and has more than 30 grams of protein. Yes!
This super filling recipe is loaded with grass-fed ground beef, pumpkin, tomatoes, and veggies. It's an ideal lunch to take with you to work; it'll warm you on a cool fall day.
