With less than 10 minutes of hands-on time in the morning, this slow-cooker cow-boy chili is your time-saving solution when you want a comforting dinner that is simple to prepare. To reduce the prep-work, look for chopped onion and bell peppers in the produce section of your supermarket. Here, we’ve used ground turkey, but you could sub extra-lean ground beef if you’d like. It’s pretty hearty on its own but if you’re looking for something to go with it, serve with a mixed greens salad or crudités like carrot sticks, broccoli florets, cherry tomatoes, and celery with your favorite veggie dip.
