Our family has been making this wonderful recipe for YEARS. Out of any chili, this one is our absolute favorite, and it’s also very easy to put together. I originally found this recipe over at Allrecipes, and only recently learned that the lovely lady who created this recipe has her own blog! Her name is Valerie over at From Valerie’s Kitchen, and you can learn more about her here. Now that I know about her blog, you can be sure I will check out more of her recipes. If they’re anything like this one, I’ll be thrilled!
The only things I do differently – I use ground turkey breast instead of ground turkey. Yes, it’s leaner, but the flavor is still amazing without the fat. I add more garlic and definitely extra red pepper flakes. I’ve also had this recipe as is, and it is FABULOUS – these are just personal preferences after years of making this deliciousness.
I used our 8-qt. (7.6-L) Nonstick Stock Pot, here’s some info about it below:
