21 Day Fix Turkey Vegetable Chili

Turkey Vegetable Chili, serves 4-6

●      1 lb. Extra Lean Ground Turkey

●      1 large onion, chopped

●      Cayenne Pepper

●      Chili Pepper

●      2 bell Peppers, different colors

●      2-3 tomatoes, chopped

●      1 can sweet whole kernel corn (optional- more yellows!)

●      1 can tomato sauce or ½ jar marinara sauce (Make sure it's no sugar added or it counts as a purple for the 21 Day Fix, here's my recipe for clean tomato sauce). You can even add salsa (but that's a purple, too!)

●      1 can organic beans (kidney or black bean work well)

Brown ground turkey (the leaner the better) along with onion in a large pan (I usually use a wok for the whole thing because they’re so big, it’s easy and that’s what I have) and add seasoning to taste. Try Goya’s Adobo seasoning because of its interesting blend that is great for poultry. After meat is browned and the aroma of the onions permeates the kitchen, start throwing in everything else, beginning with the peppers, tomatoes and corn. From here, tomato sauce (or even half a jar of marinara sauce) works great in addition to any salsa that remains from my late night tortilla chip binge the night before. Depending on how much chili is desired, add one or two cans of beans. I always add a lot of chili powder and voila!, this dish comes together! Stir for about 5-10 minutes (making this earlier in the evening, leaving it on low heat, could make for a stress-free evening!), taste for level of spiciness and serve with any favorite additions.

Need some toppings? Top with plain low fat greek yogurt and cheddar cheese (blue container). Spice it up even more with some jalapeños.
