• 28 oz Diced tomatoes (no salt added)
• 15 oz Tomato sauce (no sugar added)

• 15 oz Kidney beans (no salt added), rinsed and drained
• 2 tbsp Chili powder
• 1 tbsp Ground cumin
• 1 tsp Smoked paprika
• 1 tsp Oregano
• 0.5 tsp Salt
• 0.25 tsp Black pepper
• 1 cup Vegetable broth (low sodium)
• 1 light spray Olive oil spray
• 2 tbsp Fresh cilantro (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Heat a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat and lightly spray with olive oil.

Step 2

Add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the lean ground turkey to the pot and cook for 5-7 minutes, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned and no longer pink.

Step 5

Stir in the diced bell peppers and zucchini, cooking for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.

Step 6

Add the chili powder, ground cumin, smoked paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper to the pot and stir to coat the vegetables and turkey evenly in the spices.

Step 7

Pour in the diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, vegetable broth, black beans, and kidney beans. Stir everything together until well combined.

Step 8

Bring the chili to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
