I'm not a huge fan of squash, but I decided to give this recipe a try anyway. I'm glad I did! The chili is delicious and the squash is not overpowering at all. I will definitely be making this again.

This chili is so good! I love the combination of turkey and squash. It's a great way to use up leftover turkey after Thanksgiving.
