Kitchen sink turkey chili
This is one of those kitchen sink recipes. You know, the ones where you can throw in whatever you have lying around. In this case, I am taking advantage of a friend being out of town last week and gifting me her farm share for the week. My staples are onion and peppers but if you like your chili veggie-loaded, throw it in! This is also one of those easy substitution recipes. It can be made vegetarian (just leave out the ground turkey and add more veggies and/or beans) or the meat can be changed up if you're a beef in chili only person (I'm a turkey fan. Sausage could also work.) It's a quick, easy weekend cook up on the stove and throw into the crockpot or stew in a pot on the stove for a few hours kind of meal. Enjoy!
