Fall In Love With Fall

Fall is a special time of year. Cozy clothing, warm drink sipping, crisp air, the leaves on trees changing colors all remind me of the season. Although, they're not reasons why I fall in love with fall every year. I love fall for all the yummy soups to eat! Including this delicious veggie chili recipe I am going to share with you. Break out your soup pot and get in the kitchen! Best part about it, it's easy!

• 1 package chili powder
• 1 package Morning Star Sausage Style Crumbles
• 1 tablespoon salt
• 1 bag Frito Lay chips
• 2-4 cups shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 avocado cubed

Imagine music playing in the background, sitting next to a fire, surrounded by holiday decorations and eating a yummy bowl of this chili. It would make anyone stop and think about how much they enjoy this season. Yay for fall! Enjoy!
