Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pound ground turkey we used 93/7
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 1 red pepper, chopped green pepper or poblano can be subbed
- 3 cloves garlic, chopped
- 1 15 ounce can black beans drained and rinsed
- 1 15 ounce can tomato sauce prefer unsalted
- 1 15 ounce can roasted red tomatoes, undrained regular diced will work
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 2 teaspoons ground cumin
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup chicken stock
- 1 large sweet potatoes, cubed about 2 cups
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
Instructions
- Heat large soup pot or dutch oven over medium high heat. Add olive oil.
- Add ground turkey, breaking apart with a wooden spoon or potato masher until reaches desired consistency . Continue to cook until brown and cooked though.
- Add onion and chopped pepper. Cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook an additional 1-2 minutes.
- Add beans, diced tomato, spices and chicken stock. Bring to a simmer.
- Add sweet potatoes, salt and pepper. Simmer until sweet potatoes are fork tender. About 15-20 minutes.
- TASTE FOR SEASONING. More salt? Pepper? Cumin?
- Serve with a dollop of sour cream, grated cheese or avocado if desired.
Recipe Notes
- We used 93/7 fat ratio for the ground turkey. You can use all white meat turkey but we find it dry.
- Substitute kidney beans for the black beans if desired.
- Top with sour cream, avocado, cheese.
- Remember to taste for seasoning! Salt, Pepper, cumin? Spices vary by brand and I always find I like more cumin.
- Freezes really well in ziplock type bags for up to 6 weeks.
