Pair with Chili
Monday, February 20, 2012 My number one requested one-pot meal recipe is my White Turkey Chili. It's so easy to prepare, just give all the ingredients time to simmer. Another favorite is my Turkey Gumbo; a spicy and a warm way to serve turkey.
BTW - my cornbread has got a little kick, like my White Turkey Chili. Enjoy!
