I followed some of the reviews, and skipped the tomato soup, and replaced it with 1 can of diced tomatoes, and another can of diced tomatoes with chilis. We are not huge fans of spicy food, so we reduced the pepper flakes to about 1/4 tsp. We only put in 1 tbsp of chili powder, and doubled the garlic powder. I also added 1 tbsp each of brown and white sugars (we like it a little sweeter!).

This chili is yummy! I added a can of diced tomatoes and a can of green chilies for extra flavor. I served it with homemade cornbread on the side and topped the chili with sour cream and shredded cheddar cheese. Perfect for a chilly fall night. Thanks for the great recipe!

After making this a few times, I've found that the vegetable oil is NOT necessary when cooking the turkey, even when using 93/7 fat content. Just spray a little Pam and cook. One of the things I love about this recipe is that it's so much healther than most. Why not make it even more so? Incredibly good, and easy! I did take cues from other reviewers and use a can of rotel tomatoes in place of one of the cans of soup. I also used a can of white beans in place of one of the kidney beans. Thanks, Laura!!!

My son (5yrs old) and I made this for the first time today, what an amazing chili! It is the perfect blend of spice and chili! You would never know it is turkey, a nice thick chili! The only thing I did to modify the recipe was removed 1 can of kidney beans. I would be worried that there would be too many beans in it had I added the 2nd can. I would also recommend doubling the recipe if you are serving this to more than 3 people, everyone is going to want seconds and the original recipe would not be enough to feed everyone seconds. I will be making this all winter!!!

I chose not to add the red pepper flakes. I couldn't find low sodium tomato soup so I used Healthy Request tomato soup. In place of the two cans of kidney bean I added one can of light and one can of dark red Bush's beans for color variation. Added a can of Hunt's diced tomatoes with green chilies also. Very very good recipe. My children loved it and asked for seconds and thirds! Thanks for submitting this recipe!

This was awesome...I will definitely make this several times this winter. I'm not a huge meat eater, so I only used 1/2 lb turkey, but my meat eating husband didn't complain of the lack of meat. I didn't have tomato soup so I used some spaghetti sauce and some water...turned out fine. I took the other suggestions and used a can of Rotel and only one can of kidney beans.

My family loves this recipe. I have made it many times, I try different beans each time, always good. The only thing I change because it lacks liquid is I add spicy bloody mary mix to make it the consistency we prefer (about 3/4 cup) and it also gives it a little extra kick. Top with shredded cheese and my favorite crushed cheez-its. Delicious.

this was really good! I'm a Cincinnati fan, so after browning the turkey, I ground it to a finer consistency in the food processor. Also, added a dash of cinnamon to my cup. No cinnamon for the pot. My hubby's not a Cincinncati fan. It's great either way!

Really nice chili. I toned it down a bit by omitting the red pepper flakes. I was worried about the amount of cumin but it turned out great. I also did as other reviewers suggested and substituted 1 of the cans of tomato soup for a can of chopped tomatoes and I did add a can of drained chilies with it.

Absolutly loved this recipe! My boyfriend raved about it to all his friends and he is not a fan of ground turkey (I didn't tell him that it wasn't hamburger!). I didn't use the slow cooker. I browned the turkey and combined all the ingredients into a dutch oven and let simmer. And I only used 1 tbsp of chili power and it was still hot!

Excellent! Because I have two little girls and a pregnant wife, I made it a little less spicy and added slightly more garlic to make up for missing spice. Still terrific.

We liked this chili. I thought I had chili powder and found out mid-cooking that I didn't so I subbed taco seasoning for all the spices. We also skipped the red pepper flakes because we don't like things too spicy. We used one can of tomato soup and one can of diced tomatoes with green chile.

I fixed this chili for a party I was having. It received rave reviews. My daughter wanted the recipe, and she didn't even know I made it with ground turkey. She said, "Oh, and it's healthy too! I did add 1 small can of tomato sauce, and used 1 can of kidney beans, 1 can of pinto beans, and 1 can of cannellini beans instead. I will make this again!

This was really good! I did change it a little like others did by using only one can of soup and a can of diced tomatoes with chiles. I also replaced the pepper flakes with 2 seeded, chopped jalapeno peppers, which gave it a nice spicy tang. It was super easy to throw together and very yummy! Recommended!
