Instant Pot Pumpkin Walnut Chili

fire-roasted tomatoes

onion,

garlic,

poblano peppers, chopped

2-3 chipotle peppers, chopped

cups walnuts, chopped

red lentils

bulgur

chili powder

smoked paprika

tablespoon salt

water

pumpkin puree

To Start

Place all the chili ingredients in the Instant Pot (affiliate link) and set to soup mode (30 minutes).

To Finish

Release the steam, stir in the pumpkin and black beans, and season with more salt, more spice, etc. Serve with avocado, lime wedges, cilantro, tortilla chips, rice, cornbread&#8230; whatever you like with your chili! If it&#8217;s too thick, you can always thin it out with additional water or broth.

A fantastic chili!  Where did the lentils and bulgar go?  And what happened to the walnuts?  Just kidding.  The thick texture lends itself to a variety of uses. Burritos and baked potato topping are what I have in mind for the leftovers. I can see how my choice of peppers (hatch and chipotle) and my DIY chili powder (off the internet) put me in charge of the heat level.  Fortunately it was subtly spicy but not overboard.

This looks sooooo good! Thanks, guys! AND: when I clicked on the 'Pin This Recipe' link it worked! Hooray! October is cuhrazy b/c both hubs and son have birthdays, but with hubs being vegan I cannot wait to try this recipe! Happy Fall!

I originally bought poblano &amp; chipotle peppers when I saw this recipe in the summer.  When it started to get cold and I wanted to make this, I only had jalapeño and red peppers. I substituted chipotle chili powder for 1 tbsp of regular chili powder. I was pleased with how it turned out, and can vouch for substituting different peppers.

I goofed! Added my beans already... Did all different types. Do you think if I set it to low and cook it a little longer, it will come out okay?

Okay. No one is leaving out the pumpkin. That just can't happen. Nope. And walnuts you say? I don't have an Instant Pot, but Imma try the dutch oven route with said walnuts. Chilli foolery at it's finest! 🔥💥

This looks so unique and delicious! I can say I wasn't really sold until I started reading through but wowza it does sound good!
