How to make this slow cooker chili:
Trust me when I tell you this recipe is so easy! I even made it last week while wearing my 5 week old baby. Basically cook up your ground turkey in a skillet and season it well with salt and pepper. Toss the cooked turkey directly into your slow cooker along with all other ingredients. Put the lid on, set your cook time and walk away. Yep, it’s that easy!
This Chili also lasts for about 4-5 days in the fridge, so it makes for a great meal prep recipe! Simply re-heat on the stove or in the microwave for lunch or dinner the next day, add your toppings and dig in!
