(You most be logged into WW on a smartphone or tablet.) 7 PointsPlus (Old plan) I made a few changes to the original recipe. It called for ground turkey, but turkey sausage was on special the day I shopped, so I used it instead. And I cut the recipe in half, which still made 7 generous cups. Served with corn muffins and a few of our favorite chili garnishes, this easy slow cooker BBQ turkey chili made a satisfying supper we both really enjoyed. And the leftovers make a great quick and easy lunch. Enjoy!
