Eat Well Recipe: Turkey-Pumpkin Chili
With ground turkey and a full can of pumpkin puree, this Turkey-Pumpkin Chili is positively autumnal, and it takes very little time to prepare!
Plus, it’s packed with flavor and a variety of nutrients that promote overall health and well-being!
Lean ground turkey is a great source of protein, iron, and B vitamins, which support muscle health and energy production. Cannellini beans are rich in fiber, protein, and folate, essential for digestion and cell function.
Pumpkin puree brings in vitamin A and potassium, boosting vision and heart health. Using spices like coriander and smoked paprika adds antioxidants and anti-inflammatory benefits, making this dish both flavorful and nutritious. Finally, low-sodium chicken broth helps control sodium intake while contributing to hydration and collagen support.
After getting all the ingredients in the pot, you'll allow it to simmer for just 15 minutes. To jazz up this hearty, comforting dish, add hot sauce, sour cream, and sliced scallions to taste.
