There is nothing more comforting to me than a big warm bowl of this healthy Turkey And White Bean Chili on a cool day!
Turkey And White Bean Chili
Good Morning! I thought we were in the clear and spring was here, but Mother Nature had other plans. Snow is now falling in Chicago and we are supposed to get between 5-8 inches. No Fun. So this cold, wintry weather calls for a nice big bowl of Turkey And White Bean Chili, right? There is nothing more comforting (at least for me) than a nice bowl of warm chili. One of my favorite cookbooks is Williams-Sonoma’s Soup of the Day Cookbook: 365 Recipes for Every Day of the Year that has pages and pages of soups for each season. It is a fun cookbook to browse through, but a little overwhelming since I want to try most all of the recipes. 
Soup is one of my favorite things to make because it is customizable, usually healthy and easy to throw together. I also love soups and chilis because you can make a huge batch and have it throughout the week for those busy nights, or freeze it to use later. This Turkey and White Bean Chili falls into all of those categories: it is healthy, easy to make and you will have leftovers (unless you are feeding a big family). As with most soups and chilis this is customizable to your tastes. I could see adding jalapenos for a little extra spice, maybe some black beans or kidney beans.

For those of you affected by the big snow storm stay warm and safe and here’s to hoping Spring is just around the corner! Julia

I love using turkey in chili. I was just saying today how you can get away with putting mostly anything in chili and it still tasting great. In fact, we had chili for dinner tonight! It was such a good day for this!

Thanks Stefanie! After the ridiculous snow yesterday chili was perfect! I agree--chili really is great with anything in it. We do vegetarian chili too which is always a nice change from adding meat in (my husband doesn't think so though!)

What a gorgeous bowl of chili and perfect for a cold night. I've bookmarked it because summer is still here regardless of the date. :)

You are lucky that it is summer there! I am missing warm weather more than you know. Soon I hope...

Love this healthier version of chili. I've never tried it before. So tempted to give this a shot :)

I like chili better with turkey and white beans! But that's just me--give it a try! :)
