I got this recipe from my mom, she may have ripped off Rachel Ray, but never-the-less, it's super cheap, incredibly easy and ridiculously delicious! With fall coming right around the corner I already made a big batch and froze it so I can be prepared for cool evenings when I don't feel like cooking.
This stoup would also be good over rice, or topped with cheese, sour cream and a little green onion. However, since Brett and I are counting calories we pass on the extras and enjoy it just the way it is.
Also, the cans in this recipe contain extra unnecessary sodium, so if you are down with dry bean (which I use almost exclusively) then you can adjust the salt to your own taste.
20 oz ground turkey
1 onion- chopped
1 bell pepper- chopped
salt to taste
pepper to taste
cumin to taste
Italian Seasoning to taste
Brown the turkey in a large pot, add onion, bell pepper and seasoning- cook through. You can use a little oil for this process since there isn't much fat in turkey, but I just add a little water to (again) avoid extra calories.
Next add the equivalent of 5 cans of beans. I do: pintos, kidneys and black beans. Through in a can of corn (or fresh/frozen) and let it simmer for 1-2 hours.
So easy and so good!
Prep time- about 10 minutes! Cook time- 1-2 hours.
