Need something for supper , try Quick Turkey Chili

Published on by chalynsmith2 Comments

This week I decided that I would try a new recipe, again using my favorite lean meat, you guessed it turkey!  The price is just so much better compared to ground beef.  I also through this recipe would be great becauschillie I planned to double it, as I know chili freezes well.  This week I am Quick Turkey Chili.  I found the recipe on the real simple website. Lately I have been feeling overwhelmed and will defiantly appreciate something quick that produces leftovers!!  Check out my first YouTube video!

The recipe is very simple and basic.

INGREDIENTSmm

  1. 1 tablespoon olive oil
  2. 1 small yellow onion, chopped
  3. 1 pound ground turkey
  4. 114.5-ounce can diced tomatoes, undrained
  5. 115.5-ounce can kidney beans, rinsed and drained
  6. 1 bell pepper, diced
  7. 3 tablespoons tomato paste
  8. 1 1/2teaspoons chili powder
  9. kosher salt
  10. 1/4 cup sour cream
  11. 1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded Cheddar
  12. 1/4 red onion, chopped (optional)

DIRECTIONS

  1. Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until slightly soft, about 4 minutes.
  2. Add the turkey and cook, crumbling with the back of a wooden spoon, until no trace of pink remains, 5 to 7 minutes.
  3. Add the tomatoes and their juices, beans, bell pepper, tomato paste, 1½ cups water, chili powder, and 1¼ teaspoons salt. Bring to a boil.
  4. Reduce heat and simmer until slightly thickened, about 15 minutes.
  5. Divide among bowls and top with the sour cream, Cheddar, and onion, if using.

The sour cream adds such a nice touch, so don’t hold back.  I did skip the cheese to cut a few calories but it didn’t matter cause I ate two bowls.  The chili is delicious and I have lots to freeze.  Oh yeah and lets not forget what showed up as I was making supper.  I can wait to tell you all about the fun and features the Fitbit Alta has. fitbit
