Turkey Veggie Chili
Ready in 30-45 minutes
Serves 8
Notes from Coach Jillian:
This chili is super easy to throw together and doesn’t require a crock pot or anything fancy. I try to pack it with lots of veggies so I’m getting lots of micronutrients in! You can also use lean ground beef, venison or bison in place of the turkey. The El Pato Hot Tomato sauce is my secret ingredient - thank you to my husband for always having that in the house! It has just enough kick that I don't need to add many other spices. I love this chili any time of the year, but it is especially great in the cooler months!
