Hi, Angels Working On Earth Family!

Chili is an all-time favorite of mine! I’ve been making this dish since I was eight years old! I like to make this dish with ground turkey meat. The turkey meat is tender and has a lot less fat than beef! But I still love beef too.

This recipe contains all of the essential macros, such as healthy carbs, proteins, and fats. You can have this for lunch or dinner. If you want to try a delicious lunch idea, make plain baked potatoes and top them off with a cup of turkey chili. Or use this chili as a topping for cauliflower or taco pizza.

Enjoy!
