Ground Turkey and Butternut Squash Chili
From: Roni @ greenlitebites.com/
The farm store near me is great for not only produce but poultry. They offer all sorts of cuts and have fresh ground turkey breast and thigh. Last week I decided to give the ground turkey thigh a try as it’s more than a dollar cheaper then the breast. I really enjoyed the thigh as a chili base. It worked perfectly.
Serves: 4
Ingredients:
12 oz ground turkey thigh
1/2 sweet onion, chopped
About 1 and 1/2 cups cubed butternut squash (I used just over 200g)
2 tbsp ground cumin
2 tbsp dried cilantro
1 tbsp chili powder
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp ground red pepper
1 (14.5oz) can petite diced tomatoes
Instructions:
Brown the turkey with the onion and the butternut squash.
Add the cumin, cilantro, chili powder, salt and red pepper.
Once the turkey is cooked through, add the tomatoes and lower to a simmer.
Cook until the butternut squash is tender and you’re done!
I topped with avocado, of course!
