Mexican Chili


This is a little bit chili and a little bit taco soup, so I'm going to call it Mexican Chili. I've made this before with chicken and now I'm making it with ground turkey. It's a pretty close call as to who will reign champion because they're both delicious! This is a crock pot creation with minimal time required at a stove, which is a plus. If you're totally anti-stove, then just throw frozen chicken tenders in the crock pot when you start it and come back later to shred the chicken. Here goes...

1 lb ground turkey 
1 can low sodium black beans
1 can mild tomatoes & green chiles 
1 can mexi-corn (the corn with red and green peppers mixed in)
1 can tomato sauce
1 packet chili seasoning 
1/2 onion, chopped 
Salt, pepper, garlic powder and chili powder to taste

Throw all the canned goods and the onion into the crockpot. Stir in the chili seasoning and let it all cook on low for about 4-6 hours. Brown your ground turkey and add it to the crockpot and then add salt, pepper, garlic powder and chili powder to suit your taste. The chili powder is optional as it definitely spices the dish up. Let it cook for an additional 30 minutes or so and then serve however you like. Be creative and enjoy!
