CrockPot Turkey Chili Stew

Yep…you read that title correct!  I make Turkey Chili Stew.   I used to call it chili, but when I would describe it to people, it was decided that it was more of a stew because of all the vegetables that are in it.  Call it chili, call it stew…doesn’t matter because it is so tasty!

 

Ingredients:

• 1 pound ground turkey
• 1c raw onion
• 1/2c diced red bell peppers
• 3 stalks of celery diced
• 1 cup spinach
• 1 can of kidney beans, drained (optional)
• 1 can (14.5oz) of diced tomatoes
• 1 can (6oz) tomato puree
• 2.5 Tbsp chili powder
• 1 Tbsp garlic powder
• 1 Tbsp crushed black pepper

 

First brown the turkey in a pan.   Then you can line your crockpot with a crockpot liner.   Add all of the ingredients to the crock pot except spinach.  Add spices to the mixture.

Now add the spinach on top.

Cook on low for 7 hours.  Stirring occasionally.

Seven hours later….your house smells like chili.  It’s the perfect comfort food on a cold day.

Unfortunately, the picture does not do it justice.  I know that it isn’t very pretty, but it is delicious and very healthy!
