This Healthy Turkey Chili Will Change Your Meal Prep Game
Since living in a house and having to cook my own meals, I’ve tried to buy groceries that are nutritious, inexpensive and last me through the week. My recent discovery: Making soups and chilis is an economical way to grub for several days.
I created this Healthy Turkey Chili recipe that's low in fat, yet flavorful and satisfying. Bonus: It will get you through at least six meals so you don't have to cook everyday. Or, you could just be that good roomie and cook dinner for the house.

If 12 cups of chili is excessive for your lifestyle, you can also freeze it in Tupperware containers. To thaw, simply put it in the fridge 24 hours before you’d like to eat it.
I enjoy serving my chili on a bed of baby spinach and topped with avocado (healthy fat, woo!).
