Healthy Turkey Chili

Tonight my daughter invited me over to dinner and she served this, it was yummy and healthy, so I am writing it down to make again!

I believe it is from the 21 day fix program.

Turkey Chili

1 tsp olive oil
1 1/2 lbs raw 93 % lean ground turkey
1 medium onion, chopped
1 medium green bell pepper, chopped
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 1/2 tsp ground cumin
1 Tbsp chili powder
1/2 tsp sea salt or Himalayan salt
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper to taste
2 (15 oz) cans black beans, or pinto beans, or kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 (15 oz) can all natural diced tomatoes, no sugar added
Fresh cilantro sprigs, finely chopped for garnish (optional)
(she uses 2 or 3 cans diced tomatoes to make it more saucy)

Heat oil in large saucepan over medium high heat
Add Turkey, onion, bell pepper, and garlic; cook, stirring occasionally for 5 to 8 min, or until turkey is no longer pink.
Add cumin, chili powder, salt, and cayenne pepper, cook, stirring constantly, for one minute
Add beans and tomatoes (with liquid)  Bring to boil, Reduce heat to low and gently boil, stirring occasionally for 15 to 20 min, or until thickened
Serve warm, sprinkled with cilantro.

YUMMY!

and for the thought for today:

"Keep going, each step may get harder, but don't stop.  The view at the top is beautiful"

and another:
"No matter how you feel, get up, dress up, show up, and NEVER give up"

another:
"Believe in yourself and all that you are.  Know that there is something inside you that is greater than any obstacles." Christian d larson

You can't fail if you don't quit.  You can't succeed if you don't get started.
