Out of all the recipes I have shared in the last 2 1/2 years in my groups this is the one that I get the most requests for. I have had to search for and send this recipe so many times that I thought it might just be time to give it a place on my blog!
I adapted this recipe right out of the 21 Day Fix Extreme Eating Plan. You know the books I used to toss aside and ignore when I got my new workout DVDs. That was before I realized the results I wanted came just as much from my kitchen as they did from my workouts.
Turkey Chili:
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 1 1/2 pounds of lean ground turkey
- 1 large carrot, chopped
- 1 medium red pepper, chopped
- 3 cloves of garlic, chopped or minced
- 1 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1 Tbsp chili powder
- 1/2 tsp sea or Himalayan salt
- 2 (15 oz) cans of beans- black, chili, or pinto, drained and rinsed
- 1 (15 oz) can of diced tomatoes (I use the one with chilis)
1. Heat oil in saucepan, add turkey, carrots, bell pepper and garlic, Cook for 5-8 minutes or until turkey is no longer pink.
2. Add cumin, chili powder, and salt. Cook for 1 minute.
3. Add beans and tomatoes (with liquid). Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, stirring occasionally for 15-20 minutes to until think.
4. Serve and top with fresh cilantro, avocado, or a dab of Greek Yogurt
This makes 6 servings- 1 cup each.
