I’m all about warm and cozy comfort food for fall. I’ve been trying to make childhood favorites just a bit healthier. Here’s my health(ier) turkey chili recipe. Enjoy, be well and stay cozy!

Here’s what you’ll need:

• 1 pound of ground turkey

• 1 1/2 teaspoon of organic olive oil

• 1 onion chopped

• 1 tablespoon of garlic minced

• 2 cups of low sodium chicken broth

• 1 can of organic diced tomatoes

• 2 cups of Rao’s tomato sauce (optional)

• Canned kidney beans (drained, mashed, and try to find a lower sodium, if possible)

• 1 teaspoon black pepper

• 1 teaspoon tumeric

• Hot sauce (to taste, so a lot for me :))

• 1 teaspoon of chili flakes

• 2 teaspoons of Cajun spice

• 2 teaspoons of nutritional yeast

• Pinch of sea salt

• Squeeze of lemon juice (optional)

Here’s what to do with them:

• Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Place turkey in the pot, and cook until evenly brown.

• Stir in onion, and cook until tender.

• Add broth into the pot. Mix in tomatoes, tomato sauce, kidney beans and garlic. Mix and add in seasoning.

• Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer 30 minutes.

• Enjoy in your sweatpants (optional but highly recommended :))
