One recipe that I have made and LOVED has been this 21 Day Fix EXTREME turkey chili. Now, not to toot my own horn or anything, I make a pretty BA chili. I don't have a real recipe, per se, but it always tastes the same and it's always a crowd pleaser. Anyway....with that being said, I was skeptical of trying something new. Jimmy is not a big fan of turkey, in fact he refuses to eat turkey bacon altogether, so I was nervous when I told him I was making a turkey chili. But, to my surprise, he loved this just as much as I did! Wife win!

Sounds amazing. I am going to have to keep this one for when I start 21DF.
