Easy Turkey Chili

Easy Turkey Chili

I hope everyone has recovered from Halloween! Now that my sugar high has worn off and our jack o’lanterns have burned out, I’m looking to have a nice relaxing weekend before things get crazy for Thanksgiving!!

Here is my version on a classic, easy dish. It can’t get much easier than throwing everything in a slow cooker and leaving for the day. There is nothing better than coming home to dinner already ready! I’ve also made it where I leave it all on the stove for an hour as well. Works great either way!

I love making this to bring to a couple who just had a baby and even for a large crowd over at my house. There are so many ways to add flavors and then when you add toppings, it makes it all that much better!
