Clean Eating Slow Cooker Turkey Chili

So, I am one of those crazy people that actually LOVE the fall and winter and the cooler temperatures and SNOW!  One of the things that I LOVE about this time of year is all the awesome comfort food that I can enjoy without sweating bullets (seriously, you just can't eat a nice warm bowl of chili in the middle of the summer... even up here in Canada!) 

So, temperatures dropped last week and I was ECSTATIC to whip out the slow cooker and throw together one of my FAVE comfort dishes - Turkey Chili!!  

Now this just ends up with whatever I throw together (I usually use this opportunity to use up veggies in my fridge that may be turning, this is REALLY good with zucchini btw) - but it's generally similar to this :)
