SLOW COOKER TURKEY AND CHORIZO CHILI
This is the turkey chili I made to compete on fooduel.blogspot.com. It's not overbearingly spicy, with good texture and flavor. To thicken this chili, you can add double the amount of chorizo and stew the tomato sauce before adding it to the slow cooker.

MEXICAN-STYLE TURKEY CHORIZO
This super-flavorful lighter version of Mexican chorizo is made with lean ground turkey instead of pork. Form into burger patties, stuff inside sausage casings, use as taco meat, or fry some up with eggs! This is what I use to make my Chorizo-Stuffed Spaghetti Squash recipe, also found on this site. The possibilities are endless!
