Yesterday morning I felt a little chill in the air (very little) and that was enough to decide on making chili for dinner. There are so many turkey chili recipes and I make chili often in the winter so I decided to try a new one. I got this recipe off a blog I love dinneralovestory.com. It's was a turkey black bean chili and it had one very interesting spice . . . . . cinnamon!!! I would have never thought but I decided to go with it especially since the recipe said DON'T skip adding it and the result was delicious. I served it with a green salad.
Ingredients
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 1/2 large onion, finely chopped
- 1 clove of garlic, minced
- 1 lb ground turkey
- 3 tbs chili powder
- 1 28 oz of diced tomatoes
- dash of oregano, thyme, cayenne
- 1 bay leaf
- 1/4 tsp of cinnamon (TRUST ME ON THIS ONE)
- 1 can of black beans, drained and rinsed
Sauté the onions and garlic in a little bit olive oil. Add turkey and break into pieces as it cooks. Add chili powder and let it cook for a minute. Add diced tomatoes, spices,bay leaf and cinnamon and simmer for 15 minutes. Add black beans and cook another 5-10 minutes.
Serve with diced avocado, reduced fat shredded cheddar cheese and a spoonful of non fat plain greek yogurt.
