It’s been a long time since I posted super-easy recipes, but with so many people frazzled by deadlines and the holidays (myself included), I’ve decided to start posting again.

Since the weather screams “dinner by the fire”, tonight I’m serving Slow Cooker Turkey & Sweet Potato Chili. It’s different than regular chili, but still hot and filling. And it’s great served with fresh cornbread! If you want to extend the meal, serve it over white or brown rice.
