Recipe Notes

Feel free to use ground beef. The original recipe actually called for ground beef, but I switched it up and used ground turkey. Either would be delicious. This chili is pretty versatile, if you don't love white beans, leave them out or add an extra can of kidney or even toss in a can of black beans. Whatever makes you happy.

Also, regular diced tomatoes are just fine too or whatever you have in your pantry.
