Three Bean Turkey Chili
From: Heather @ shrinkingkitchen.com/
This is a family favorite. My husband likes his with cheese, sour cream and tortilla chips. My son takes his with cornbread. My baby girl likes hers smeared all over the high chair – she does actually eat it, but let me tell you, it is not pretty.
I love that my family loves this recipe – it is simple and it is nutritious. Plus it’s budget friendly. You can even entertain with it – have a chili bar with an array of toppings. Pretend you slaved over it all day (I won’t rat you out).
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 35 minutes
Total Time: 45 minutes
Yield: 6 servings
Serving Size: 1/6 of total recipe
Gather
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound ground turkey breast
1 bell pepper (your choice of color), diced
1 poblano pepper, seeded and diced
1 medium yellow onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 15.5 ounce can low sodium diced tomatoes, with juice
1 15.5 ounce can low sodium black beans, drained
1 15.5 ounce can low sodium kidney beans, drained
1 15.5 ounce can low sodium pinto beans, drained
1 tablespoon cumin
1 teaspoon chipotle chili powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
Step by Step
Heat olive oil over medium heat in a dutch oven or large, heavy pot.
Add onion, bell pepper and poblano pepper, cook until softened.
Add garlic, cook for another minute.
Throw the ground turkey into the pot, break up and work into the vegetables.
Brown the turkey.
Add the cumin, chili powder and salt. Stir to combine.
Add the tomatoes and beans.
Bring to a low boil then reduce to a simmer for at least 20 minutes.
You can simmer on the stove for a few hours if you're so inclined.
Ladle into bowls and serve with toppings - I like low fat shredded cheddar and light sour cream.
Cilantro, baked tortilla chips and avocado are also wonderful.
TIPS:
If you’re partial to ground beef, it’s a perfect substitution for the turkey.
Don’t feel limited to my choice of beans, or just three beans for that matter!
Different canned beans are fabulous, and use whatever variety you love!
