Low-Carb, Veggie-Heavy Turkey Chili!
I don’t know about you, but every Fall, I look forward to making Turkey Chili! It’s such a heart warming dish that is so filling and decadent. It’s like, you can’t believe it’s healthy – but it is!! This specific chili is LOADED with veggies, protein and fiber, so it will definitely keep you full and have you feeling satisfied through the colder months.
Typical Chili vs. Low Carb, Heavy Veggie Chili
This veggie chili has a TON of goodies, including cauliflower rice. It helps with bone health and helps strength your immune system. Additionally, I chose to use a 99% lean Organic Ground Turkey. You could also do ground beef or a plant protein.
Finally, I of course decided to add in extra, not so common for traditional recipes, veggies into this, duh! The baby carrots give it a nice little crunch, while the zucchini adds a fun volume and of course additional fiber/nutritional benefits as well.
Chili Specifics
I love prepping this on a Sunday and having ready for lunches throughout the week. It’s the perfect fall staple. Before we jump in, here is a list of the specific products I prefer to use for the recipe: Muir Glen Fire Roasted Crushed Tomatoes, Bare Bone’s Chicken Bone Broth and Simple Truth Organic Ground Flax Seed Meal.
