Okay, we have done chili before…many times. It really is a favorite and easy go to meal. Why not try it “green” style? This version is lighter compared to using the traditional red meat – ground beef, by implementing ground turkey instead. Add in some chopped cilantro for extra something-something.
Leave the red salsa behind and opt to open a jar of green salsa instead. Mixing it up and keeping it fresh!
