Losing weight, one diet at a time; one month at a time…


Turkey Chili - Hot and Fabulous

This is a crock pot recipe - but I’m sure it can be adapted to make on the stove.

2lbs lean ground turkey
1 large onion - chopped
2 cloves minced garlic
1 large green pepper chopped

saute all of the above and add to the crock pot - I use a 5 quart pot. Add to the pot:

2 cans of beans - I used black beans, but I’m sure you can use kidney, chili or pinto beans
1 4oz can of chopped green chilies
2 (16 oz) cans diced or stewed tomatoes - mexican style
1 can (16 oz) tomato sauce
1 tbs chili powder
1tsp cumin
salt & pepper to taste
Stir - cook on low for 6-8 hours.

Enjoy.

    […] Day one of week two included a shake for breakfast and lunch, then the left over Turkey Chili for dinner. Again, it was all good. There was one slip, but it hasn’t caused me to lose my way. […]
