I love making spicy chili, even on sunny days. It’s so easy to make and generates enough leftovers for a couple of days. I make chili with two types of beans: organic ground turkey or grass-fed ground beef and fresh vegetables. I don’t use any canned tomatoes.
What I love about this healthy recipe is that I can guarantee the freshness of the ingredients in my food. Also, I don’t have to worry about inorganic or unhealthy stuff that might ruin my diet since I want to monitor what my body takes in. Below is the must-try recipe.
