This week, I’m with the family at my parents house. We each agreed to cook dinner one night (besides Thanksgiving) so I knew I needed a recipe to feed a crowd.
This White Turkey Chili was perfect. It was a little different than usual, with was great. And there is nothing red in it — a stipulation from my uber-picky brother. Serve it on a cold night, and you’ve got a meal that will warm you up AND fill you up!
