Turkey Chili Soup

Arg! Forgot to post this yesteray, but here you go!! Ok so this weekend, we did a lot of cooking obviously... This was one of the best soup/chili recipes we have tried.  It was a pretty basic recipe at first but we added to it and it was perfect, especially for a rainy day like there was plenty of last weekend.  Oh, by the way, I LOVE spicy food, so if you like things a little more mild, I suggest you use a bit less spices originally and add from there.

Ingredients:
1 lb. lean ground turkey
1 teaspoon chopped garlic
1/4 cup chopped onion
2 cans white or black beans, drain and rinsed
1 tablespoon chopped chilies
1 can chopped tomatoes with green chilies mixed in
1 can chopped tomatoes (plain)
1 small can tomato sauce
1 can tomato paste
2 tablespoons beef bullion
4 cups water
1 teaspoon chili powder (or to taste)
1/2 teaspoon cumin (or to taste)
1/2 teaspoon cayenne powder (or to taste)

A dutch oven or a large stockpot works well for this. 
Spray and heat up the inside of the dutch oven or pot with PAM original spray or just coat with a little olive oil.
Brown the turkey meat and add in the garlic and the onions to the pot. 
After the onions are slightly caramelized, you can throw in all other ingredients... how easy is that??
Bring to a  boil, then let simmer for about 20 minutes.

Enjoy!

Super simple recipe and super delicious!  I love it spicy so again, use the spices to your taste!
