Turkey Pumpkin Stew

This comforting autumn stew is filled with creamy pumpkin and savory turkey, keeping it low-carb and high protein. Stew doesn’t get better than this! If you’re up for making a turkey, feel free to use shredded, roasted turkey instead of raw, ground turkey. Simply chop the shredded, roasted turkey and add in the last 10 minutes of the cooking time. Enjoy!
