Easy Turkey Chili is a light yet hearty chili that gives us the best of both worlds so we can enjoy healthier options without sacrificing the comforting tastes we crave in chili.

What You'll Need

  • 1 pound ground turkey breast
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 3 (16-ounce) cans navy beans, no-salt-added rinsed and drained
  • 2 (14-1/2-ounce) cans whole tomatoes, no-salt-added, coarsely chopped
  • 1 cup salsa
  • 2 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper

What to Do

  1. Coat a large saucepan with cooking spray. Add turkey, onion, bell pepper, and garlic. Cook over medium-high heat 5 to 7 minutes, or until no pink remains in turkey, stirring occasionally to break it up.
     
  2. Add remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer an additional 20 minutes.
     

Note

  • To make this a gluten-free recipe, use nonstick cooking spray with no flour added, and seasonings with no added starch from a gluten-containing source.
     
  • For added flavor and to give this a finished look, sprinkle each serving with additional chopped onion or top each with a dollop of reduced-fat sour cream or your favorite low-fat shredded cheese.
