If you’re looking for a healthy and delicious chili that doesn’t take all day to make then you’re going to love this Quick Bodybuilding Turkey Chili recipe!
Tips:
- Top your chili with some sour cream, cheese, bacon bits, or anything else you can think of!
- Whether or not you want to drain it is completely up to you! Animal fat is HEALTHY and since we are using lean ground turkey there isn’t going to be much there anyways!
- Add in some Sriracha if you want it spicy!

Hi Derek I was craving some chili and yours was the first I looked up and it looks really good like you I also like cheese on mine but I also love sour cream as well
Love it Stuart!!!
This chili was amazing and very filling, i froze it in portions and i am already making another batch, thank you for taking the time to post great healthy recipes, i LOVE your site:)
Thanks Melissa! I love that you love it!
Hey Derek! This looks awesome! Do you think I could cook it in a slow cooker?
Hi Stacey! Definitely! 🙂
Hey Derek, what are the measuring cups you use? I’ve just got some cheap plastic ones, and a lot of the markings are starting to come off. I’d like to replace them with some nicer metal ones with the measurements engraved in them.
Hi Greg! I’m actually unsure of the brand, I’d say I got these over a decade ago when I first moved out (which probably makes you want them more). I think that most local home goods stores would have something similar though. I’ll do my best to find them online and report back!
This is so good! And I don’t even like beans.
