Favorite Fall Recipes (Part 1)
**This recipe is not my own. As much as I love cooking and baking I am not advanced enough to create my own recipes. Maybe one day, but probs not. What even is turmeric?
Keto Slow Cooker Spicy Pumpkin Chicken
I found this recipe on the King Soopers website believe it or not, and was so happy I did. While I do not adhere to a strict keto diet, I do think that using cauliflower rice rather than regular rice helps my tummy. But if you hate cauliflower rice then feel free to use regular ole white rice (meet in the middle with brown rice?). Feel free to substitute the chicken as well for any non-meat substitute. Also, who doesn't love something you can simmer in the crockpot for hours? The smell and the ease are enough to make me fall in love with this recipe.
