This recipe for Turkey Bean Chili is so versatile, you can substitute ground turkey for ground beef. You can even eliminate the meat and make it vegetarian. Ground turkey is a bit on the bland side so it usually requires more spice than ground beef and this recipe has the perfect balance of spices. Serve with some warm biscuits or buns and you have a very hearty, healthy meal the whole family will love.
