I have something to share with you.

It’s starting to finally cool off in Texas and I thought I would celebrate by cooking a fall favorite – turkey chili!  My daughter had made it at cooking class at camp and I figured she would love it(plus it would be a super quick dinner).  It took 30 minutes to make and then I let it simmer till we were ready to eat.  Not only did we have a great dinner, but there was plenty to freeze for a night I am out of town.

Turkey Chili

Ingredients

• 2 packages ground turkey  (I use Jennie-O)
• 2 cans(15.5 oz) Kidney Beans, drained and rinsed
• 2 large cans(28 oz) diced tomatoes(do not drain)
• 1 can(6 oz) tomato paste
• 2 packets of chili seasoning(choose your heat)
• One small onion, diced small
• Half of a green pepper, chopped fine

Directions

• Cook the onions in oil until translucent.  Add peppers and cook through.
• Add the ground turkey and cook through.
• Remove extra oil(I use slices of bread) and add seasoning packets, kidney beans and tomatoes.
• Let it simmer for 30 minutes to 2 hours.
• Serve with chopped onions, sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese and Fritos!
