Wednesday Wellness: Healthy Recipe

Healthy Turkey Chili
I made this last night during the cold and wintery mix we were having here in Maryland.  It was a perfect night for something warm!  The chili was delicious, yet healthy, so I didn't feel bad eating it!

Ingredients:
2 pounds lean ground turkey (I used one pkg ~1.3 lbs)
2 cans diced tomatoes, low sodium
8 oz can tomato sauce, low sodium
2 cans kidney beans, rinsed and drained
1 can black beans, rinsed and drained, low sodium
1 green pepper, diced
1 onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 Tbsp chili powder
salt and pepper to taste
low fat cheddar cheese (optional)

Directions: 
1.  Brown turkey in pan and place in crock pot.
2.  Add rest of ingredients (except cheese) to crock pot.
3.  Cook on high heat for 4 hours or low heat for 8 hours.
4.  Top with cheese, if you prefer.

ENJOY!
