Fall Food Staple: Taco Chili

By far- my favorite Fall recipe. (And it incorporates cheese & sour cream - my faves!)

1 lb of 99% fat free ground turkey
1 can of chick peas
1 can of gorgonzola beans (white kidney beans)
1 can of tomato sauce
1 can of diced tomatoes (or if you like to spend time in the kitchen, chop a fresh tomato)
sprinkle of cumin
sprinkle of cayenne
dash of hot sauce
onions (optional---i dont like onions so I don't add them)

Brown the turkey. Pour everything else together in a big pot. Bring to a boil then simmer for 15 minutes. I usually wait 25 minutes. Scoop your chili in a bowl, mix in shredded cheddar cheese (better if you mix it in your chili then just leaving it on the top) and a dollop of sour cream - voila!

This makes a pretty good amount so put on your flannel pajamas, turn on some football, and enjoy a nice bowl of chili.

Enjoy!
