Turkey Chili Recipe - Cooking Index
Don't just buy any ground turkey, since much of it is quite high in fat. First be sure that the label says "ground turkey breast" to get the leanest meat possible. Then cook up a big pot of healthy, hearty chili to enjoy over rice or with a warm batch of corn muffins.
