Quinoa Turkey Chili

Finally the weather here in Az is starting to cool down. Chili is so great for us because I always make a ton of it and can have it throughout the week. This chili is full of flavor and different textures. This is also made on the stove and is done in less than 40 minutes! Enjoy:)
