Chili Squash Boats

Chili Squash Boats

Low carb, with a paleo option, these Chili Squash Boats are a wonderful way to make a meal out of leftover chili.

A great way to use up left over chili. I always make a large batch of chili, and then have this the next day for lunch. A really simple, fast meal  when you have leftover chili.

Here are some links to my favorite, paleo , low carb chili recipes: Hearty Crock Pot Chili Stew, or Easy Taco Chili Skillet ,  or you can use any chili recipe you like as well.
