Behind the Recipe

Canned pumpkin adds body and a subtle sweetness that balances the chili spice, while a scoop of Greek yogurt stands in for sour cream on top.

Instructions

  1. Brown the ground turkey in a large skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it up as it cooks, about 5 minutes.
  2. Stir in the pumpkin puree, bone broth, and Kinder's Woodfired chili seasoning until combined.
  3. Add the pinto beans and simmer uncovered for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened.
  4. Ladle into bowls and top each serving with a dollop of Chobani Greek yogurt in place of sour cream.
  5. Finish with chopped cilantro if desired.

40/400 Notes

  • The Greek yogurt swap keeps the topping just as creamy and cool, with more protein and less fat than sour cream.
  • Canned pumpkin adds body without tasting like pumpkin pie — the chili seasoning stays front and center.
  • This chili freezes well for up to 3 months; thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
