Turkey Chili

Today I made turkey chili in the slow cooker. I started with this recipe from Skinnytaste Kid-friendly Turkey Chili but made some changes based on the comments and the ingredients on hand. I used:

  • 1.5 lbs ground turkey
  • 2 12 oz cans of crushed tomatoes instead of Rotel and sauce. I blended one can to smooth it out. I also wanted to use organic and avoid added salt.
  • Doubled the spices except the salt 
  • A cup of frozen tri-color peppers instead of one fresh. The fresh organic ones at the store looked a bit wrinkly and now I have more left for the next batch. 
  • Added a can of black beans, rinsed
  • Served with pepper jack cheese I shredded myself and low fat sour cream. No avocado because I had some in my smoothie for breakfast. 
This was good - nice and spicy.
