White Bean Turkey Chili

This recipe I found in a magazine years ago.  I’d love to give credit where it’s due, but it was cut out and no name is listed.  This is a perfect healthy option for chili lovers.  I tweaked it a bit to my taste.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Non-stick cooking spray
  • 1 Package lean ground turkey
  • 1 C Onion, chopped
  • 1 C Yellow (or red) bell pepper
  • 1 14.5 oz. Can diced tomatoes
  • 2 15 oz. Cans Great Northern beans, drained & rinsed
  • 2 11.5 oz. Cans tomato-vegetable juice
  • 1 T T Chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp.  Ground cumin

Method
 

  1. Spray large saucepan (I use my dutch oven) with cooking spray.
  2. Add ground turkey, onion and bell pepper.
  3. Cook and stir over medium heat about 8 minutes or until turkey is crumbled and no longer pink.
  4. Stir in undrained tomatoes, beans, vegetable juice, chili powder and cumin & bring to a boil, stirring occasionally.
  5. Reduce heat to low; cover.
  6. Simmer 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Notes

This is a great one to pair with cornbread.
I keep it simple and use Krusteaz Honey Cornbread Mix.  It’s delicious and a winning combo 🙂
