Pixies majick Turkey Chili

I have had a craving for Chili for a few weeks now, and I just didn't want to make any, and buying it was out of the question because no matter where I went it all had beans in it. I dont know about you, but I dislike beans, unless they are green and cooked in chicken broth. (recipe to come later...maybe.) So I caved and I finally made some. Now, this isn't an ordinary chili and being strapped for cash and using all I had in my kitchen I had to make due, the meat is actually five Jenni-O turkey patties. Hope you enjoy.


A healthy alternative to the Traditional chili
