This chili is packed with veggies, beans, ground turkey, and spices which all go so well together. This butternut squash chili is definitely not your most traditional chili recipe (it reminds me more of a white chicken chili) but I have no doubt you will love it. I do also have a more traditional chili recipe using ground beef that I will be sharing with you soon, so stay tuned for that!
