TURKEY + BUTTERNUT SQUASH CHILI RECIPE
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 onion, chopped
1 bell pepper, chopped
4 cloves garlic, chopped
2 pounds ground turkey
6 cups butternut squash, cut into bite-sized pieces
1 tablespoon chili powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon cinnamon
28 ounces fire-roasted diced tomatoes
4 cups low sodium chicken broth
1 15-ounce can of black beans
1 15-ounce can of chickpeas
3 cups baby spinach
Heat olive oil in a large dutch oven over medium heat. Add onion, pepper, and garlic with a pinch of salt and cook for 5-7 minutes or until the onions are tender and translucent.
Push all the veggies to the side and add in the ground turkey. Season with salt and pepper. Use a wooden spoon or spatula to break the turkey down into crumbles and cook until no longer pink.
Add the butternut squash, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, cinnamon, salt and pepper. Stir everything together.
Add in fire-roasted tomatoes and chicken broth. Bring everything to a boil and then reduce the heat and bring everything to a simmer.
Add the beans to the pot, stir and partially cover the pot. Simmer for 30 minutes or until squash is tender.
Finish with baby spinach. Adjust seasonings. Serve and enjoy!

BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP | how to make roasted butternut squash soup
Butternut squash soup is a classic fall and winter soup recipe. But today we're roasting the butternut squash, which gives so much more depth of flavor and makes the soup easier to prepare (as you don't have to peel and cut the butternut squash).
My butternut squash soup recipe is made from roasted #butternutsquash, onions, garlic, maple syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg, vegetable broth, salt and pepper. It's naturally ultra-creamy (without any cream). But if you do tolerate dairy, adding just a tablespoon or two of fresh butter definitely boosts the creaminess factor.
This soup is gluten-free, vegetarian and paleo friendly. It can also be made vegan. It's delicious for Thanksgiving and other holidays. Enjoy!
