Heart Strong Turkey Chili

 |
Heart Strong Turkey Chili is great for our heart and it is so mouth watering and delicious; also we can use 90 percent lean Ground Beef (note it would take longer to cook the Beef-20 minutes or more until no pink is showing). Kristie Leong MD said, “A bowl of hot Chili is the ultimate comfort food. Some people think that something that tastes so good could not possibly be good for you. Not so with Chili. If you make at home, Chili can be a nutritious dish that also satisfies the soul“. “Health Benefits of Chili: It’s Heart Healthy”.
Some Health Benefits of Turkey Chili:
1. Ten grams of Fibre (more 1/3 days fibre in 1 cup).
2. It may help prevent cancer.
3. It gives us better blood sugar control (a good choice for diabetics).
4. Vitamin C
5. Tumeric gives us anti-inflammatory benefits.
6. Lower in calorie than beef.
7. Turkey Chili with Beans (made from scratch) has about 220 calories per 247g serving and 8 grams of fat.
8. 25 grams of protein.
My sources are my own observance and my own original recipe and Live Strong and the Mayo Clinic.
