This comforting turkey chili is not only hearty and satisfying, it’s also designed with your gut and brain in mind. Made without beans, this recipe is ideal for anyone sensitive to bloating or digestive discomfort. Instead of relying on legumes, we use fiber-rich vegetables and warming spices to deliver flavor, texture, and nourishment, without the digestive drawbacks.
Turkey is an excellent source of lean protein and is particularly rich in niacin (vitamin B3), a vital nutrient that plays a key role in the production of neurotransmitters, including serotonin, often referred to as the "feel-good" brain chemical. Niacin also supports cognitive function and energy metabolism and helps maintain healthy cholesterol levels.
Because serotonin is primarily produced in the gut, a healthy gut-brain axis is essential for emotional balance and mental clarity. This anti-inflammatory chili helps support that connection by avoiding everyday gut disruptors like refined oils and bloating-inducing beans.
The addition of anti-inflammatory herbs and spices like cumin, paprika, and garlic not only deepens the flavor but also enhances digestion and immune support. With no dairy, no grains, and no beans, this turkey chili is a nourishing choice for those following an anti-inflammatory lifestyle focused on gut health.
Perfect for batch cooking and freezer-friendly, this turkey chili is ideal for busy days when you want something wholesome and comforting without compromising your digestion or energy.
