Equipment

  • Stock Pot or Dutch Oven This Le Creuset Dutch oven is one of my all-time favorite pieces of cookware. Super durable and versatile! Great for soups and stews.
  • Wooden Spurtle Tools This 5-Piece Wooden kitchen tool set is amazing and great for use in non-stick cookware. No scratches and no plastic!

Ingredients
  

  • 1 medium sweet yellow onion chopped
  • 2 bell peppers any color, chopped
  • 1 Tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 lb. Extra Lean Ground Turkey 99% lean
  • 1 (32 oz. carton) low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 (1 oz. envelope) chili seasoning mix
  • 1 (1 oz. envelope) ranch seasoning mix
  • 1 (15 oz. can) black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 (15 oz. can) dark kidney beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 (15 oz. can) corn, drained
  • 1 (15 oz. can) petite diced tomatoes (include juice)
  • 1 (10 oz. can) Rotel tomatoes and green chilies

Instructions
 

  • In a large stock pot or Dutch oven, add olive oil and turn heat to medium high. Saute onion and peppers for about 5-7 minutes or until onions are translucent. Add the ground turkey and brown until it is no longer pink in color.
  • To the browned turkey, peppers and onion, add the remaining ingredients: chicken broth, chili seasoning, ranch seasoning, black beans, kidney beans, corn, diced tomatoes, and Rotel. Stir to combine.
  • Keep heat on medium-high and bring to a low boil. Turn heat to medium-low and simmer for 20 minutes. Remove from heat and serve.

Notes

Directions for Slow Cooker: Sautee the onions and peppers and brown the turkey just as you would in step one of the stove-top recipe. Then, transfer to a slow cooker and add all the remaining ingredients. Stir. Heat on low for 4-6 hours or high for 2-3 hours.
Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container. Leftovers will keep for up to 5-7 days refrigerated.
Each serving is approximately 1 1/2 cups.
