Homemade Turkey 3 Bean Chili

I made this last week and a number of my Charm City Kettlebell students asked for the recipe so here goes:

• 1 pound lean ground turkey ( I used breast at 99% lean)
• 1 can black beans, drained
• 1 can pinto beans, drained
• 1 can cannellini, drained
• 1 15 oz can tomato sauce
• 1 28oz can diced tomatoes
• 2 small cans green chiles
• 6 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 large onion, chopped
• 2 Tbsp. olive oil
• 3 Tbsp. chili powder
• 1 and 1/2 Tbsp. brown sugar
• 3 tsp. dried oregano
• 2 and 1/2 Tbsp. ground cumin
• 1/8 tsp. ground allspice
• 1/8 tsp. ground cloves

Place oil in a large stockpot and heat to medium heat. Add ground turkey, and cook with stirring until the meat just loses its red color.

Add green chiles, garlic and onion to the meat. Saute until the onions are translucent.

Stir in chili powder, brown sugar, oregano, cumin, allspice, and cloves, Add tomatoes and tomato sauce. Simmer on low heat for 15 minutes.

Add black beans, pinto beans, and cannellini. Cook chili con carne recipe for an additional 20 minutes.

Enjoy!
