So fall is here, well...sort of. At least it was last weekend so I decided to make my mom's famous turkey chili to encourage the cooler weather to stick around. This recipe is the perfect combination of spicy, savory, and completely comforting without cracking open the caloric bank account. Sound good?
This is what you'll need:
1 box of Carol Shelley's White Chicken Chili mix
2 cans of fire roasted tomatoes
2 cans of Bush's White Northern beans
1 countainer Light Sour Cream
1 Spanish Onion
1 pound Jennie-O lean ground turkey
1 teaspoon of minced garlic
Fresh parsely
Olive oil
First, in olive oil sautee together the chopped parsely (how little or much as you want), onion, and the (drained) fire roasted tomatoes.
Next, brown the turkey in the pan with a dash of salt and pepper
Once the meat is browned add in the sauteed veggies, the drained beans, 2 cups of water, and the packets in the chili mix
In the box there is also a cayenne pepper packet, you can add a small dash like me, since I'm a wimp or A LOT if you like it spicy
Once everything is mixed together cover the pot and let it simmer on medium for 15 minutes
After 15 minutes, uncover the pot and let it cook until the majority of the liquid is absorbed
Once it's ready add a dollop of Light Sour Cream and share it with someone you love!
