Michael’s Wholesome Turkey or Beef Chili


  • 1-2 TB olive oil
  • 1 lb lean ground all-natural turkey breast/ lean organic-non steroids beef
  • 1 medium (organic) red onion, chopped
  • 1 medium (organic) green pepper, chopped
  • 1 can (28 oz) can (organic) diced tomatoes no salt added
  • 2 tsp chili powder, or to taste
  • 1–2 tsp sea salt, or to taste
  • 1/8 tsp cayenne red pepper, or to taste
  • 1/8 tsp paprika
  • 1 can (15 oz) can red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 can (15 oz)  chili beans
(Organic) if organic is not an inexpensive option for you; just try to get the freshest ingredients and not just the overly processed items.  
Prep Instructions:
In a large saucepan, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add ground turkey, onion and peppers, stirring often until meat is cooked and onion is tender, about 7–10 minutes.
Stir in whole can of diced tomatoes. Add chili powder, salt, cayenne and paprika. Bring to a simmer. Cover and cook for 30 minutes to 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Stir in the beans and cook another five minutes to heat thoroughly.
