Turkey chili and kale

One way to make your plate look like it is overflowing is to fill up the empty space with a big salad as I did with tonight’s dinner. Plus I do enjoy the mingling of the spicy chili and the acidic salad dressing.

What really helps bring some depth to what could be a blah turkey chili are lots of great spices, multiple kinds of chiles, finely chopped and cooked until they are dry mushrooms, and a little fish sauce to really bring the umami flavor to the fore.
