Since it’s officially cold outside, its the season for soups, stews and chilis. This turkey chili packs a punch and is perfect to warm up from a cold day. It’s also a perfect dish to restock your supply of homemade freezer meals. I am a big fan of batch cooking, meaning you freeze at least two portions of whatever is made. One pot wonders like chili are great options for this. This chili was ready in 90 minutes. While it can be eaten in less time, I like to give it a little extra time for the flavors to marinate. Check out the recipe below.
Ingredients:
- 1 lb. all natural ground turkey
- 1 small can chipotle chilis in adobo sauce

- 1 tbsp onion powder
- 1 tbsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp chili powder
- 1 tbsp ground cumin
- 2 cups diced onion
- 2 tbsp fresh minced garlic

Directions:
- Dice onion and mince garlic and add to a large pot over medium heat. Stir gently until onions start to sweat.
