  • Add beans and lentils: Beans and lentils are excellent sources of fiber and protein, making them a great addition to turkey chili. They also help thicken the chili and add a hearty texture.
  • Use low-sodium broth: To reduce sodium intake, use low-sodium or no-sodium-added broth when preparing the chili. You can also use water instead of broth if desired.
  • Spice it up: Adjust the spiciness of the chili to your preference by adding chili powder, cumin, and cayenne pepper. You can also add a diced jalapeño for an extra kick.
  • Simmer for flavor: Let the chili simmer for at least 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and develop. The longer the chili simmers, the better it will taste.
