Monday Night Football Chili

September 10, 2012

There are few dishes that almost taste better, like chili, when you are watching the game on the big screen. To kick off the football season, make this easy slow cooker chili from Mommie Cooks. Made with ground turkey instead of beef, this meaty stew is on the lighter side. However, it does not lack flavor. The recipe calls for intense spices including chile powder, cumin, and oregano. Even if you are not a football fan, slow cooker chili is a winning dish.
