Here's my delicious turkey chili recipe that is healthy and so easy to make! I mixed a few recipes that I found online to create my own version. When I'm having busy days (or want a cozy meal!) I just whip this meal up in less than an hour. I hope you will give this a try!UPDATED November 2018: Went back into this post to edit the ingredients since I've mastered the true taste of what I like to call my famous chili! Since sharing this recipe with you guys on my blog, I've been making it atleast once a month - it's that good that I crave it all year round. Enjoy!
INGREDIENTSEnough olive oil to coat the bottom of your stock pot for cooking1 yellow onion, chopped3 garlic cloves, minced1 medium red bell pepper, chopped2 pound extra lean ground turkey4 tablespoons chili powder2 teaspoons ground cumin1 teaspoon dried oregano1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (u can skip this is you don't want any hint of spicy)1 tablespoon salt (I use himalayan), plus more to taste1 (28-ounce) can diced tomatoes1-2 cups low sodium chicken broth (I do 1 cup and 1/4)1 (12-ounce) jar of salsa (I love the Green Mountain MILD salsa it just adds extra flavor)1 (15 oz) can sweet corn, rinsed and drained (so delicious but I stopped putting corn in mine because it hurts my tummy)Optional toppings: shredded cheese, avocado, tortilla chips, fritos, or what I love is the SIETE grain-free seal salt brand of chips, cilantro, sour cream (Redwood Hill Farm Green Valley brand has a lactose-free one we use and it is delicious)INSTRUCTIONSPlace oil in a large pot to cover/coat the base and place over medium high heat.
