He\u2019s a front-end developer and software engineer, a weaver of words with two novels and multiple children&#8217;s books to his credit, an artist through and through.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_3-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> If you were to ask him directly, though, he\u2019d probably tell you he&#8217;s a chili cook-off champion. Although he\u2019s never won an award for his one-pot wonder, he\u2019s petitioned for us to have a Bivins\u2019 family chili cook-off for years and maintains the stance that he\u2019d win by a landslide. Not to toot my own horn, but he\u2019s got no chance (sorry, Dad!).\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_5-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> Like any good bowl of chili, my dad is layered and complex, full of hearty ingredients that nurture and soothe the soul. He\u2019s got a little spice and a depth that makes you wonder, \u201cWhat <em>is<\/em> that?\u201d The good news is, I\u2019ve got a secret recipe of my very own and, with a few sneaky upgrades, you won\u2019t even know it\u2019s not homemade.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_7-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> Enter: Trader Joe\u2019s Turkey Chili with Beans. That\u2019s right, friends \u2014 when I\u2019m not in the mood to make a several-ingredient pot of chili from scratch, this $2.69 pantry staple is my go-to for a quick and easy meal that tastes almost as good as the real deal.\n<\/p>\n<figure id=\"mntl-sc-block_9-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block lifestyle-sc-block-image mntl-sc-block-image mntl-sc-block-image--no-theme no-theme figure-landscape figure-high-res\"><figcaption id=\"mntl-figure-caption_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-figure-caption text-utility-100 figure-article-caption\"> <span class=\"figure-article-caption-owner\"><\/p>\n<p>Simply Recipes \/ Trader Joes<\/p>\n<p><\/span><br \/>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block_10-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block lifestyle-sc-block-callout mntl-sc-block-callout mntl-block theme-tip text-passage\" data-tracking-id=\"mntl-sc-block-callout\" data-tracking-container=\"true\">\n<h3 id=\"mntl-sc-block-callout-heading_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block-callout-heading mntl-text-block\">Trader Joe\u2019s Turkey Chili with Beans<\/h3>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block-callout-body_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block-callout-body mntl-text-block text-passage\">\n<p><strong>Price:<\/strong> $2.69 for a 15-ounce can<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why I Love It:<\/strong> The homestyle chili is packed with meaty ground turkey, tender red beans, and classic spices.

Fiery jalape\u00f1os and diced green chiles bring a little extra kick to the party while a tiny bit of sugar rounds everything out. With this time-saving pantry sidekick on hand, you can have dinner on the table in less than 10 minutes flat.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_14-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> To serve, I like to dress things up with a sprinkle of sharp cheddar cheese, a dollop of sour cream, thinly sliced serranos for an extra hit of spice, and my favorite Parmesan-crusted croutons. I\u2019ve even been known to slather it onto hot dogs or layer it on top of sheet pan nachos \u2014 the options are virtually endless.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_16-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> In essence, this chunky canned marvel meets the perfect balance between being easy and affordable, yet delicious enough to win the Bivins\u2019 family chili cook-off. Just don\u2019t let my dad know I took a shortcut.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_18-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> <em>To learn more about our approach to product recommendations, see HERE.<\/em>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>#Trader #Joes #Find #Tastes #Homemade<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you were to ask me who my dad is, I would immediately run down the laundry list of ingredients that make up the man who is the senior to my junior \u2014 or second, as he emphatically asserts.
