Pumpkin is a member of the squash family and is loaded with nutrients, especially Vitamin A, Vitamin C, and potassium. It is naturally low in fat and sugar as well! Spices, including curry, have vitamins and other nutrients, and I love when I can add lots of spice to a meal, such as the Indian Chicken Kofta Curry. This Curried Pumpkin Chicken Chili sounds great, don’t they? I loved this recipe, and I hope you do too!
