I love recipes that are easy and take minimal effort. So, when I found this slow cooker turkey chili recipe on the YouTube channel WhatsUpMoms, I was eager to try it out. I love a good chili during the colder time of the year and since it is made with turkey, it is also healthier than a traditional chili. To make it my own I used less turkey and doubled the spices.
Ingredients:
2 pounds ground turkey
1 can kidney beans (drained and rinsed)
4 (14 oz) can diced tomatoes (fire-roasted or regular)
1 large sweet potato peeled
and grated
1/4 cup instant tapioca
1 tablespoon kosher salt
2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 can white beans
(drained and rinsed)
1 can (15 oz) chicken broth
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
*optional* 1-2 chipotle chiles in adobo sauce, chopped
Instructions:
1. Starting with ground turkey, put all ingredients into slow cooker.
2. Cook on low for 6-8 hours, or on high for 4 hours.
3. Top with cheese, sour cream, green onion or your other favorite chili toppings and enjoy!
