SPEEDY WEEKNIGHT CHILI

Speedy Weeknight Chili image

Super-easy and great-tasting, this chili makes a big batch of great party fare. I use my food processor to chop up the veggies and cut down on prep time. It's also very tasty and lower in fat when made with ground turkey breast. -Cynthia Hudson, Greenville, South Carolina.
