Story

If you haven't cooked with ground turkey very much, this is a good place to get started. Turkey can be a little dry, especially if you buy the truly fat-free ground turkey. So you need recipes that have ingredients that add moistness - lots of veggies and bacon help.

Of course if you are truly trying to cut out the fat, you can replace the bacon with smoked paprika for the same kind of flavor. You can also choose to saute your turkey in plenty of good olive oil to keep the turkey moist. But, you'll find just the vegetables will usually do the trick.

Besides this recipe is so packed with spices that there's no way anyone will think the chili is less than perfect!
