THICK TURKEY CHILI

Steps:

• First ground turkey, I add the onion and the yellow pepper to it, you can season it with crushed red pepper if you like it spicy, this cuts stew time.
• While turkey is browning, I put the tomatoes, beans, and seasoning in another pot. Make sure it's large enough to fit everything in! Put on medium to low heat.
• When turkey is finished I add that to the tomato/bean mixture and let it get nice and toasty. Should stew for about ~20 minutes.
• Top with cheese and sour cream.
