Scott's Chili image

This is my version of chili. Scott was my husband from OH and after being together so many years he only wanted this to be hot! I hope you like it. This can be made as mild or hot as you like depending on the chili powder you use. I use a lot of cumin in this recipe. Sometimes I add more than the 2 tablespoons stated here and this is the only time I really use cumin. There are so many versions of chili out there, I hope you enjoy mine.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my chili turned out a little bland. I think I might have added too much water.

I love that this recipe uses ground turkey. It makes the chili a little healthier, but it's still just as delicious.
