Easy & Healthy Turkey Black Bean Chili Recipe

Easy & Healthy Turkey Black Bean Chili Recipe
Who doesn't love a nice bowl of chili on a cold day? But did you know it can be easier than ever to make a healthy chili option? Because lets be honest, we all have better things to do then cut up a ton of items for chili.

So today I am sharing with you my Easy & Healthy Turkey Black Bean Chili Recipe. It literally takes 5 minutes to prep it, set it, and forget it!

I like to cook mine in the Instant Pot since it is Stainless Steel (can find the one I use on sale here) as the ceramic coating on some Crock Pot/Slow Cookers can leach toxins into your food. But if that's all you've got, go for it now and just consider your options for the future!

Here's what you need:

  • 1 lb Ground Turkey (I use the 99% Lean, but you can use what you like.)
  • 2 15 oz cans of Organic Black Beans (drained & rinsed)
  • 2 15 oz cans of Organic Tomato Sauce
  • 1 can Petite Diced Tomatoes (add with liquid)
  • 1 can Organic Corn (drained)
  • 2 Cloves Garlic (minced)
  • 1 Tablespoon Chili Powder
  • 1 Tablespoon Cumin
  • 1/2 Tablespoon Cayenne Pepper (If you don't like spicy, you can use Paprika)
  • 1 1/2 tsp Pink Himalayan Salt (at least!)
  • 1 tsp Black Pepper
  • Pinch of Cinnamon
  • Pinch of Cacao Powder
  • (You can always add fresh chopped onion, peppers, whatever you want, but ya girl is lazy so I don't)
Add all the ingredients to your Instant Pot or Crock Pot, stir it all up and Slow Cook it until it's ready! 

2-3 Hours on High or 5-6 Hours on Low. Just make sure the meat is thoroughly cooked through.

Salt & Pepper to taste. And then...

I personally don't add anything on top, but you could top it with cheese, avocado, cilantro, tortilla strips, sour cream, whatever tickles your fancy!

And enjoy!

So hopefully that provides you a super easy, super healthy option for those "chili" days!
