My husband loves soup. He is always begging me to make soup and I love a reason to use leftovers and my crock pot. I recently roasted a ham for dinner and a few days later still hadn’t used up all the leftovers. Soup is always a go to for left over meat.

What’s In the Pantry Dinner

Ever have those nights where you get home from work late and haven’t even thought about dinner? Tonight was one of those nights for me. I got home from work late, the hubby was grumbly hungry and I hadn’t planned out any sort of dinner. I opened the pantry and pieced together this chili. It was delicious! Even my husband thought this chili was better than my original version. Here’s the recipe I made and check back often for my What’s In the Pantry dinner ideas.

Directions:

  1. Brown the turkey in a medium sized skillet
  2.  While the turkey is browning, prep your veggies, drain and rinse your beans and get out your stock or crock pot (I almost always use a crock pot)

  4. Cook on high for 1 hour and a half or until all veggies are soft.
  5. If you are using a stock pot, bring to boil, cover and let simmer for an hour and a half, stirring occasionally, until all veggies are soft and desired thickness is reached
  6. Serve topped with a little shredded cheese and enjoy!

Chili is just about one of the easiest and most forgiving meals out there. Beef broth helps give a meaty flavor to turkey chili and it’s a little “secret” I use often. If you feel like your chili doesn’t come out with enough flavor, add a little more chili powder or let it cook longer. Chili is one of my favorite meals to make because it is a great left over. This recipe can serve up to 6 people.
