Turkey Chili

     The weather has really started to turn here, and its quite cold & damp most of the time. Though my first instinct is simply to curl up under the covers and stay in bed all day, I have a feeling that wouldn't sit well with the Boss or the Husband. Since the darling husband and I both hate cold weather & winter, so I find that we are especially craving comfort food to get us through the Canadian fall & winter season.
     I have had to tweak my typical comfort food recipes as I am still doing Weight Watchers. I must say, its been very easy, and I actually find myself preferring the healthy recipes. This recipe for turkey chili is divine, and you don't have to feel guilty for eating it! I modified a recipe from Cathy's Kitchen Journey, and voila! Easy, delicious & nutritious.

Non-stick spray + 1 tbsp oil
1  chopped onions
1 lb ground turkey
