Lean Turkey Chilli Con Carne
A lighter version of the classic chilli, using lean turkey mince in place of beef but keeping all the smoky, fiery depth of flavour. Ready in 30 minutes and packed with protein from both the turkey and kidney beans.

This freezes brilliantly — made a triple batch and have been enjoying it all week.

Great lighter alternative to beef chilli — all the flavour, fewer calories.

I was sceptical about turkey chilli but this converted me completely. Incredibly flavoursome.
