{Crockpot Wednesday} Turkey Chili

I'd suggest pairing this {Crockpot Wednesday} recipe with The Legend of Sleepy Hallow. I just finished the classic tale from Washington Irving today, and by the middle of it, I could taste autumn. I want to gobble it up.

This original recipe is one of my favorites. But I tweaked it just a bit (notice the dark chocolate):

Pam spray

1 pound ground turkey

1 can tomato sauce

2 cans kidney beans, drained

1 can black beans, drained

2 cans diced tomatoes, not drained

1 medium onion, chopped

1 small can diced jalapenos

2 tablespoons chili powder

1 teaspoon red pepper flakes

1/2 tablespoon garlic powder

1/2 tablespoon ground cumin

1 pinch ground black pepper

1 pinch ground allspice

salt to taste

3 small pieces of dark chocolate

Spray Pam on a skillet and brown the ground turkey.

Combine all ingredients in a crock pot. Add cooked ground turkey. Cook on high for four hours or on low for eight hours. 

Serve with cornbread.
