Crockpot Black Bean Pumpkin Turkey Chili
I realize I am sharing a chili recipe just as the weather is beginning to warm up, but that should be a testament to just how highly I think of this chili; we eat this year- round! It's the perfect balance of slightly spicy and sweet!
Another thing I love about chili is that it is SO easy for meal prep, especially when it's cooked in a crockpot. It can easily be divided, portioned, and customized for your specific nutritional needs and tastes. Enjoy!

1/8 tsp. cloves
1 tsp. salt, plus additional to taste
1/2 tsp. black pepper
