Crock Pot Turkey Chili (Zero Points) - Recipe Diaries (2024)

Guys this is seriously the best zero-point turkey chili you will ever eat! I'm a beef kind of chili girl and using groud turkey you won't even be able to tell the difference. There are only 6 ingredients in this chili recipe and those are ground turkey, onion, crushed tomatoes, red beans, chili powder, and cumin.

Chili gets even better when you cook it in the slow cooker all day long.

One thing I like to serve chili with is homemade beer bread. My beer bread recipe only requires 2 ingredients and you can read about that here. Beer bread and chili are a great combo and you can easily plan this meal out so it fits into your daily smart points for the day.

My main goal with this blog is to show you how you can still enjoy your favorite foods and not have to give up your favorite things like bread or chili.

Ingredients Needed

• Onion, diced (yellow or white)
• Crushed tomatoes - When purchasing canned tomatoes, it is important to read the label and choose a product with no added salt or sugar if you are looking for a healthier option.

What Crock Pots are the Best?

When choosing a slow cooker think of the size of your family first. Do you have a large family of 6 or more? You probably want a larger crockpot that is 7 qt or more. For smaller families that are 4 or less choose a 4 qt slow cooker and just adjust the recipe ingredients in half. No need to change the cooking times.
