How to Make Easy Turkey Vegetable Chili

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Add 1 medium chopped onion, 2 stalks of chopped celery, 1 medium chopped carrot, and 2 cloves of minced garlic. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, until softened but not browned.
  3. Add 1 green bell pepper (chopped), 1 pound ground turkey, 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes, 1 (15 ounce) can kidney beans (drained and rinsed), 1 (15 ounce) can pinto beans (drained and rinsed), 1 cup chicken broth, 1 tablespoon chili powder, 1 teaspoon cumin, 1/2 teaspoon oregano, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional), and salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the turkey is cooked through and the chili has thickened slightly.
  5. Serve hot in bowls, garnished with your favorite toppings.
  6. For extra flair, top with crushed tortilla chips, a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt, and shredded cheese.
