Freezer-friendly Slow Cooker Green Turkey Chili
This slow cooker green turkey chili is not like traditional tomato based chili. It gets its green color from green peppers, green chilies and tomatillo salsa. It can easily be a vegetarian or vegan option by swapping out the turkey for more beans. Finishing it off with a squeeze of lime and some fresh cilantro make it a quick summer meal.
