Easy Instant Pot Turkey Chili

It’s getting chilly outside and it’s high time I added some more warm weather recipes. This chili recipe uses ground turkey. I like using ground turkey as opposed to ground beef. Ground turkey is much lighter and just as tasty. 

This recipe can be as spicy or as mild as you like. I will tell you though just using this recipe it is not TOO TOO spicy and a family member (who is not a hot head at ALL) loved it. The spice I use in this recipe just enhances the flavor and is not too hot to consume.

Of course if you’re a true hot head- you can DEFINITELY add the jalapenos and whatever else you like to give it some KICK.
