This Turkey Chili Spaghetti is two comfort foods served up in one bowl! Spicy turkey chili served over your favorite pasta (I used thick spaghetti noodles), topped with grated cheese, diced red onion, and a dollop of sour cream. With the addition of the toppings, this Turkey Chili Spaghetti becomes comfort food at it’s finest! Turkey Chili SpaghettiI have found over the years that my inspiration for new recipes comes from many areas. Often, I’ll flip through a magazine and something delicious will catch my eye, which was the case with this recipe re-make. My Turkey Chili Spaghetti recipe was inspired from a recipe I recently saw in the Food Network Magazine. Thank you Food Network for inspiring me to top my spaghetti with my favorite turkey chili. This recipe is so simple to make and your entire family will thank you for it! I also love cookbooks and have quite the collection going.

Recently, as in the past few years, when we travel, a new cookbook is my souvenir of choice. I love remembering my vacations whenever I’m flipping through a cookbook. My latest addition was a cookbook titled Eataly, that I purchased from a restaurant in NYC. Now if I can only decide which recipe to try first!Turkey Chili Spaghetti

Turkey Chili SpaghettiThe great thing about a recipe like this is that you can easily adapt it to fit your dietary needs. You can swap out the spaghetti for a gluten free pasta or omit the cheese and sour cream to make it dairy free. You could even delete the ground turkey from the recipe and add more veggies and beans for a vegetarian version (please note that there is also some chicken broth added but you can swap that for vegetable broth). Now that you know you can make this to please everyone, I hope you’ll give it a try soon!! Personally, we enjoyed it exactly as shown!

Turkey Chili Spaghetti

Author Joy in Every Season

Ingredients

  • 2-3 TBSP olive oil
  • 1/2 cup yellow onion chopped
  • 1/2 cup carrot chopped
  • 1/2 cup celery chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic crushed
  • 4 TBSP tomato paste
  • 3 TBSP chili powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 1/2 tsp red chili flakes
  • 1/2 tsp cumin
  • 2 TBSP brown sugar
  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 2 14 oz cans pinto beans drained and rinsed
  • 1 14 oz can diced tomatoes
  • 1 pound thick spaghetti noodles
  • Toppings: grated cheese chopped red onion, sour cream

Instructions

  • Heat 2 TBSP olive oil in large skillet over med high heat. Cook ground turkey, stirring occasionally to break up. Remove from pan with slotted spoon and drain if necessary.
  • Add additional 1 TBSP olive oil to pan and lower heat to medium. Add chopped onions, celery, and carrots. Cook, stirring often, until vegetable are al-dente tender. Add garlic and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
  • Add meat back to skillet. Stir to combine with veggies.
  • Add in the chicken broth, canned tomatoes, and tomato paste. Stir until combined.
  • Gently stir in drained beans and spices (chili powder, salt, pepper, cumin, red chili flakes, & brown sugar).
  • After turkey chili comes to a low boil, reduce pan and continue to simmer for 20-30 minutes. Chili will thicken slightly and the flavors will blend. At this point, you can turn off the heat and reheat chili right before serving.
  • Right before serving, cook pasta.
  • Serve chili on top of pasta and top with grated cheese, chopped red onion, and sour cream.
  • Enjoy!

I highly recommend serving this Turkey Chili Spaghetti with a side of Caesar Salad and homemade Garlic Bread.

Pretty in pink! As soon as I unpacked my Valentine’s box, I knew I wanted to set a table using the small heart plates. I’ve had them for a year or two, and used them for appetizers and dessert, but never set them as a small salad plate. I searched through all my “pink” tableware and quickly realized that all pinks are not the same. I had variations of “pink” pink, “blush” pink, and “lavender” pink. It wasn’t working until I pulled it all together with the flowers. Your tip for the day is to mix and match, use what you have, and if it doesn’t work, go buy yourself some fresh flowers. #dishhoarderproblems

This White Chocolate Mocha was delicious! In fact, it was as good or better than I could have gotten at a coffee shop (and I didn’t have to leave the house). What’s your favorite coffee shop drink?

White Chocolate Sauce
•3-4 TBSP white chocolate chips
•1/4 cup sweetened condensed milk
•½ cup low-fat (2%)milk
. . . . . . .
•Using a milk frother, add low-fat milk and condensed milk. Heat until hot and frothy.
•If you don’t have a frother, combine milk and condensed milk in a small saucepan. Heat slowly until hot, but not boiling. Stir regularly to prevent scorching.
•Add chocolate chips to hot milk, stir until melted and well combined.

White Chocolate Mocha
•Into a favorite mug, pour in a shot of espresso. Add a second shot if you prefer it stronger.
•Add (hot) White Chocolate Sauce to fill cup.
•Top with whipped cream (and sprinkles).

Sometimes a simple charcuterie board and a glass of bubbly (sparkly cider or champagne) is the perfect dinner! Fill your charcuterie board with your favorite meats, cheeses, veggies, nuts, breads or crackers, and few sweets and enjoy a quiet Valentines at home with those you love!
