Thick & Chunky Turkey Chili
Share:
I love making different kinds of chili, with different beans, different levels of spicy seasonings and different toppings. This is a delicious version that can be spiced up, added too, made vegan, or into a sandwhich.
Enjoy while watching your favorite sports game, pack it up and take it to your kids soccer game or invite your family for a chili dinner.
