Kid-Friendly Turkey Taco Chili

I am really not sure if this is kid friendly for my kids, but it definitely friendly to me. I have been on a kick lately on using my crockpot and this is such a perfect recipe to make on a Sunday morning and have it ready for the week.  It is really low on calories too which is amazing.  I found this recipe on my favorite website Skinny Taste.  She seriously has some amazing recipes.
