I was feeling a bit blue as the weather was starting to get a lot cooler. I also had a screaming desire to use the crockpot we received from my grandparents. So, what better to make than chilli! It’s warm, has lots of ingredients and plenty of leftovers. And this time, I’m making sweet potato ground turkey chilli.
The best part about preparing this meal was I happened to have all of the ingredients needed to make a perfect nutritional and balanced bowl of chilli.
