This slightly spiced white chili is the perfect freezer staple to have on hand for too-busy-to-cook-nights. First, simply cook the turkey, onion, and garlic in a skillet to brown the turkey. Transfer to a slow cooker, then add the chicken broth, beans, fresh cilantro, lime juice, cumin, oregano, and chili powder for a touch of heat. Cook on low for 4 hours until it's thickened and all the flavors have melded. Store the chili in airtight containers and freeze for up to a month so you always have some on hand. If the chili is too thick after it’s been frozen and defrosted, add extra broth and reheat to achieve desired consistency. For additional color, top with chopped cilantro just before serving.
