Leftover turkey? Try this recipe ⬇️

Let's be honest - Thanksgiving turkey is everyone's least favorite Thanksgiving dish. BUT it's high in protein and very good for you.

​

Every year when I have leftover turkey I make a big pot of White Turkey Chili. It's a similar recipe to White Chicken Chili, but with, you guessed it, turkey instead. Adding your leftover turkey to soup makes it flavorful + way less dry than the standard T giving dish.
