Turkey Chili

Turkey Chili

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 tsp olive oil
• 1 lb ground turkey
• 1 onion, chopped
• 2 cups water or chicken broth
• 1 - 28 oz can diced tomatoes
• 1 - 16 oz can white or red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
• 1 TBS minced garlic

• 1/2 tsp paprika
• 1/2 tsp ground cumin

Suggestion from Barbara of Village Folk Art is to add some diced bell pepper to the recipe. I would suggest approx. 1 cup diced peppers when adding the onion to the browned ground turkey. Thanks so much Barbara!!! To visit Barbara's blog, please click here.

Suggestion from Judy of Prim2Pink is to serve this on a chilly day with homemade cornbread. Yummy!!! To visit Judy's blog, please click here.

Optional: Cheddar cheese, sour cream, parsley, scallions, French or Italian bread.

Directions:

Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Place turkey in the pot, cook until evenly browned. Stir in onion and cook until transparent.

Add the rest of your ingredients into the pot. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 30 minutes.

Top with Cheddar Cheese, Sour Cream, fresh Parsley, or even chopped Scallions. Serve with crusty French or Italian bread.
