Eat Clean, Live Healthy: Easy turkey chili

Easy Turkey Chili

Some meals can be VERY simple and EASY. Turkey Chili on a winter afternoon for lunch is one of these things that should be simple. Nothing fancy. I know a lot of people are CHILI Freaks, with or without beans. I like beans in mine, which makes it NON Paleo, but my cornbread has milk in it too, so the whole paleo is out the window on this one, BUT it is more of a Primal way of eating.

Take some ground turkey and 1 whole white onion and brown it up

After it's browned, add 1 jar of diced tomato, 1 jar of tomato sauce. I didn't have tomato sauce, so I just took my diced tomato and put it in the blender for a few seconds to get some tomato sauce. Also add in your beans, you can use whatever kind you want. I used Pinto. Drain if using canned. Feel free to add in some bell pepper too if you want, I would have, but I didn't have any, I just used mine all up yesterday.

I make things really easy, buy some good quality chili powder I've tried a few organic brands and this one is NOT HOT, which Dennis prefers and since we have a small child eating this as well, it less spicy the better.

Great brand of chili powder.

Here is the final product after a little while of simmering. At least 30 minutes, if you want to let it simmer longer, be prepared and have some beef stock on hand to add back in for moisture if needed. I did add about 2 ounces after about an hour.
