By mrsmortician

Ingredients

• 1 lb. ground turkey meat
• 1 large onion, chopped
• 1 small green pepper, chopped
• 3 cloves of garlic, minced
• 2 (15 oz. each) cans kidney beans, drained and rinsed
• 1 (15 oz.) can garbanzo or black beans, drained and rinsed
• 2 (15 oz.) can diced tomatoes, undrained
• 1 (28 oz) can crushed tomatoes, undrained
• 1 small can corn, drained
• 1 T. chili powder (heaping)
• 1 t. garlic powder
• 1 t. cumin (or to taste), (heaping)
• 1/2 t. oregano
• 1/2 t. basil
• 1/4 t. pepper
• 1/4 t. salt
• 1/2 c. water

Preparation

Step 1

Heat a large saucepan coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Add the turkey meat, onion, green pepper and garlic and cook for about 10 minutes or until meat is cooked through, breaking the meat into pieces with a spatula.

Add all remaining ingredients to the pot and stir well to combine. Bring mixture to a gentle boil and then reduce heat to low. Place lid on the pot and simmer chili for about 45 minutes. You can add a little water along the way if chili gets too thick.
