Chili Recipe

The number of tomatoes we are getting from the garden is almost unimaginable.    We’re thinking of ways to use them.    I decided to throw together a pot of chili today and use as many as I can.   Below is the recipe I used.

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 pounds ground turkey
• 2 Tbsp butter
• 8 cups chopped tomatoes
• 2 green peppers, diced
• 2 large onion, diced
• 6 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tsp sea salt
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 2 tsp Italian seasoning
• 2 cans chili beans, not drained
• 1 can black beans, drained
• 2 Tbsp chili powder
• 1 tsp smoked paprika

Instructions

1. Melt butter in a large Dutch oven or stockpot over medium-high heat.
2. Add the onions and sauté until they begin to soften, approximately 5 minutes.
3. Add ground beef and garlic. Cook until the beef is browned.
4. Add remaining ingredients and put the lid on and reduce heat to a slow simmer.
5. Simmer for at least an hour.
