This sounds so good! I've been on a chili kick lately (we just had the cook off) and I'm always looking for new recipes. Love a good slow cooker one too! I hate to cut up butternut squash so I usually buy the cubed because whenever I do buy a whole one, it brings me back to why I hate to cut it!! I totally respect people who do!
ReplyDeletePerfect!! Just what I need. We are going to have a high of 20 degrees Thursday.
ReplyDeleteI have about 10 different varieties of squash in the cellar. I do not have butternut. I think I will be able to use others for the recipe. I will let you know how it turns out.
This sounds good! We don't have a Trader Joe's nearby though. I suppose fresh onions and peppers could be substituted?
ReplyDeleteSounds delicious! Perfect for warming up after these brisk days we've been having!
