    Pumpkin Chicken Chowder

    September 24, 2018 by burntapple Leave a Comment

    The air has finally started to cool off a bit and the mornings have a snap to them. It's time to bring out the soups. This delicious pumpkin chicken chowder has a very subtle hint of pumpkin and a traditional chowder.

    It's PUMPKIN SEASON!!!

    I know that I posted about my committment to pumpkin, not my addiction to pumpkin. I hate that it is called an addiction. It isn't. Pumpkin season takes a lot of committment. And I do draw the line. I saw pumpkin tortilla chips in the store today and I am just not in support of that. And while I could eat pumpkin desserts all day long, pumpkin dinners that I like are a little bit harder for me.

    I don't know why that is. I love pumpkin but I love it most in bread, cookies and cakes.

    This pumpkin chicken chowder is good though. Really, really good. If you are looking to change your mind and reinvent your love for pumpkin desserts into pumpkin dinners, this is definetely a recipe that you need to try. I also HIGHLY recommend this pumpkin recipe too: Zupas Caribbean Pumpkin Soup

    I've been making over recipes since I was ten. Back then I wasn't so great at it and created everything from rubber cakes for my Dad's birthday to rock muffins that put a hole in the wall.

    Diagnosed with colitis ten years ago and with three young children I had to learn to cook. But life was busy and there wasn't a lot of time to cook or figure out what I could eat!

    Burnt Apple became my personal coffee shop--a place to share, talk and vent! I share minimal ingredient recipes with five ingredients or less and ready in under thirty minutes!
