Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • ½ lb Ground Turkey
  • ½ Onion diced
  • 1 Bell Pepper diced
  • 1 can Chili Beans
  • 1 can Crushed Tomatoes
  • 2 Tbsp Chili Powder
  • 1 tsp Paprika
  • 1 tsp Onion Powder
  • 1 tsp Cumin
  • ½ tsp Salt
  • ¼ tsp Pepper
  • ½ tsp Marjoram
  • 1 cup Rice uncooked
  • Optional Toppings - Shredded Cheese, Diced Onions, Greek Yogurt or Sour Cream, etc.

Method
 

  1. In a large pot, heat oil over medium heat. Add turkey and season with salt, pepper, chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder. Cook, breaking the turkey apart as it cooks, until fully cooked through.
  2. Add onions and continue to saute until onions are soft and translucent, about 2-3 minutes more.
  3. Add bell pepper, chili beans, tomatoes, chili powder, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, pepper, cumin, marjoram, and salt. Stir and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for about 10-15 minutes or until chili reaches desired consistency.
  4. Meanwhile, cook rice in a separate pot as directed on the bag.
  5. Separate cooked rice equally into bowls and top with chili. Top with any optional toppings and enjoy!

Notes

If using this recipe for freezer meals, cook turkey and onions as directed and then simply place all ingredients, except optional toppings, into an airtight bag or container and freeze for up to 3 months. When ready to cook, thaw overnight, then slow cook for 4-5 hrs on low or cook on the stovetop until bubbly and slightly reduced, about 1-2 hours on low heat.
