Hearty Turkey Chili
Chili is one of the most filling, soul-warming winter dinners imaginable. Packed with protein, veggies and carbs, it's an easy, one-pot-wonder meal that fills the kitchen with cozy scents. It's perfect for feeding a crowd, especially on big game days (looking at you, Super Bowl Sunday). But traditional beef chili can be pretty heavy, especially if you're not a big red meat eater. That's where this hearty, flavor-packed Turkey Chili comes into play.
Filled with colorful veggies, aromatic spices and healthy ground turkey, this chili is satisfying, flavorful and comforting just as any game day meal should be. Better yet, it's simple and so easy to prepare ahead of time.

Nothing is quite as satisfying as watching layers upon layers of flavor come together in one mouthwatering bowl. And I promise that this recipe is so tasty, you won't even remember how healthy it is. I'd call that a game day win.
