I know, I know (if you haven't heard of this) you probably read this title and thought "really?"... don't get scared, it's totally yummy - promise! I'm normally not a huge fan of ground turkey, but it is absolutely perfect in this dish. I love this healthy alternative to the "usual" chili and it's a great way to sneak in a lot of vitamins (love pumpkin)!
This delish recipe is courtesy of Whole Foods. I must be crazy. I've never been to Whole Foods, but high on my list of "reasons to move to the beach" is that a Whole Foods is opening there in a few short weeks. I know I'd adore it. Tell me how much you love Whole Foods - let me know what I've been missing...
Best dishes and yummy dreams!
