Pepperoni Pizza Chili Recipe Notes

As soon as I saw this recipe for pepperoni pizza chili show up in my inbox I knew I wanted to give it a try.

I made several changes to lighten it up, shaving more than 100 calories and half the fat from the original, by using 95% lean ground beef, turkey sausage and turkey pepperoni.

I also made a half batch since I wasn't feeding a crowd.

You could cut the calories and bulk it up even more by adding a cup or two of chopped mushrooms in with the meat.

Be sure to play around and adjust this recipe to suit your spice tolerance.

Designed for the stove top, I've included instructions for the slow cooker (affiliate link) too.

And like with so many soup and chili recipes, I think it's even better the next day. Enjoy!
