It’s chili season! There’s nothing better than a Sunday night with a pot of chili on the stove, the fire going and a great movie. Harry Potter preferably. Dave and I have done that the past few weekends while I’ve been perfecting this Turkey Enchilada Chili recipe for you! It’s like a traditional chili, but with a little kick from enchilada sauce. I use ground turkey, but you could also use ground chicken or beef. If you do beef you may want to drain any excess grease from the pan before adding in the canned beans etc. I recommend topping with sour cream, cheese and tortilla chips so it’s kind of like nachos in a bowl!

Who’s ready to make a big pot?! This is the perfect recipe for a football Saturday or Sunday. I recommend pairing with Three Ingredient Sour Cream Muffins or Four Ingredient Beer Bread.
