2 pounds ground turkey
2 cans of kidney beans (light red or dark red)
2 pounds sweet potatoes – cubed
1 onion
1 bell pepper
28 oz beef broth
14.5 oz can diced tomatoes
28 oz tomato sauce
3 tsp red pepper flake (amount can be adjusted according to taste)
1-2 tsp garlic (amount can be adjusted according to taste – I use more)
1 tsp cumin
salt & pepper to taste
Saute onion, bell pepper and garlic until tender and move to 6 quart slow cooker. Brown ground turkey and add salt & pepper before moving to slow cooker. Add cumin, red pepper flake, cubed sweet potatoes, kidney beans, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce and beef broth. Cook on low for 8 hours.
This recipe can easily be doubled using a larger slow cooker if expecting a large gathering. I served garlic cheese biscuits with this chili.
