Review:
Yum.  I love leftover turkey and this was a great way to use it up.  Holy jalapeno!!   This is spicy spicy spicy.  So if you don’t love the heat then maybe just use half a can of the jalapenos, or a quarter of the can.  If you love beans add in another can.  4 stars.

    Mine seemed very soupy instead of like chili. Is this normal?

      Hmmm, maybe drain the beans next time for a more chili consistency.

    So good! I used chicken instead of turkey and shredded it once it got tender, made it more like chicken-tortilla soup! My boyfriend loved it ๐Ÿ™‚

Hi! I'm Karen

I know that dinner time can be less than relaxing. Busy schedules and cranky kids and a hundred other things can lead to weariness when it comes to putting dinner on the table. I can help! I make homemade, family-friendly slow cooker and Instant Pot dinners and share the recipes with you.
