Dinner: Healthy Chili

This healthy chili may be lower in calories than regular chili, but it's got all the rich flavor you're looking for!

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 lb ground turkey
1 green bell pepper, diced
1 medium Vidalia onion, diced
2 celery stalks, diced
2 tablespoons pickled jalapeño peppers, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 (14 1/2 oz) cans diced tomatoes, (petite cut)
1 (15 1/2 oz) can red kidney beans
1 (15 oz) can pinto beans
1 cup tomato sauce
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup reduced-fat shredded cheese
1/2 cup scallions, chopped

Instructions

Heat oil in large nonstick saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the turkey and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until the turkey is browned, about 6 minutes.
Add the bell pepper, onion, celery, jalapeño and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally until vegetables are tender, about 8 minutes.
Add the tomatoes, beans, tomato sauce, chili powder, cumin and salt; bring to a boil.
Reduce the heat and simmer covered, stirring occasionally, until the flavors are blended and the chili begins to thicken, about 1 hour. Serve with cheese and scallions.
