I know it's not quite chili weather, but that doesn't mean you can't make an all-in-one meal year round! Especially if you're like my family and you're already running ragged with the kids activities. 

This Black Bean and Turkey Chili is a hearty and healthy dinner that you can make ahead of time, then reheat for a quick weeknight meal.

Black Bean and Turkey Chili

How do you make Black Bean and Turkey Chili?

For this recipe you'll need extra lean ground turkey, EVOO, red onion, green pepper, garlic, chicken broth, fresh oregano, plum tomatoes, black beans, chili powder, and grated Pecorino Romano cheese.

Heat the oil in a Dutch oven or large pot over medium-high heat; then add the ground turkey. Stir until the meat is cooked through and white. Add the onion, peppers and garlic and cook for another 3-5 minutes until they start to soften.

Next, add the chicken broth, oregano, tomatoes, beans, chili powder and cheese; mix well. Bring the mixture to a boil, turn down the heat to a low simmer; then cover the pot and cook for 1 to 1 ¼ hours allowing most of the liquid to evaporate.

Serve this Black Bean and Turkey Chili on it's own; which is how I like it since I'm watching my carb intake; or over rice or pasta. Chili made with ground turkey or chicken is a bit healthier than made with beef.

Some of our other favorites are Black Bean, Chicken and Spinach Chili, Hearty Chorizo Chili and Vegetarian Three Bean Chili (Slow Cooker). Enjoy!
