Fall Favorite Turkey & Sweet Potato Chili

The days are getting shorter and the  nights are getting cooler.  Beautiful Autumn colors are showing up all around us - gorgeous mums being planted in the yard while the leaves in the trees are starting to turn.  Fall is fantastic.  Honey crisp apples are finally in season, pies of pumpkin or apple are enticing our senses and, of course, football season is in full swing.  Chili will become a Fall staple in the rotation of quick, delicious meals.  Try this EASY version of Turkey & Sweet Potato Chili while you sit back, kick your feet up and relish in the scents and tastes of the new Season!  Add a piece of cornbread, garnish with Greek yogurt and a little cheddar cheese and ENJOY!
