I’m trying to eat healthy. I really am. And yet, food is just so darn good!
What must all of the deliciousness be so full of fat and carbs?
While this recipe is not carb-free, it is lower in fat than traditional chili recipes because of the use of ground turkey instead of ground beef.
But the real star of the show is that soft and delicious cheesy biscuit on top! It’s the perfect texture that as soon as your spoon hits it, your mouth starts watering.
So if you’re looking for healthy ground turkey recipes, this is definitely one to try!

For the Biscuits:
