If you can't tell, i've got a thing for soups and stews. when the weather starts cooling down, i break out my warm weather soup recipes (and usually my slow cooker too). on of our favorite recipes is my slow cooker vegetarian chili. it's divine we had family over the other night and i thought i'd switch it up a bit and throw in some meat. i also realized that i was out of a few ingredients and needed to improvise. the result? this wonderfully delicious hearty turkey chili my slow cooker (or crock pot) has been working in overdrive.
