 Here is a perfect slow cooker chili  recipe for game day, healthy and delicious enjoy!♥


Ingredients ♥

    1 pound lean turkey ground beef
    28 ounce can whole tomatoes or 1½ pounds (4 cups chopped) fresh tomatoes
    16 ounce can tomato sauce or 2 more cups fresh diced tomatoes
    1 big onion (softball-sized)
    6 cloves garlic, minced (2 tablespoons)
    2-5 jalapenos, chopped (depending on your taste)
    1 tablespoon ground cumin
    3 tablespoons chili powder
    1 teaspoon salt
    Optional (for thickening if desired): 1 corn tortilla, torn up
    Optional: 15 ounce can kidney or pinto beans; for more heat, add a couple of chili petins (similar to bird-eye peppers)
    
Instructions ♥


 Chop the onion into about 1 inch chunks, mince the garlic, and dice the jalapenos.
   Break the ground meat up into a large pot and brown over medium-high heat. If using stew meat, sear the chunks on all sides.
   Add everything else (except the beans if you decide to use them) and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat, cover and simmer 1 hour if using ground meat, 2 hours if using stew meat.
   Add the beans (drained and rinsed) if you want. Taste and add more salt if it needs it. If you’d like it thicker, stir in the corn tortilla pieces.
   Simmer another 30 minutes.Serve, top with avocado slics, fat free sour cream, shredded cheese and green onions. enjoy! ♥
