Description
I’m sure to chili purists, this recipe is pure blasphemy, but this was created one day when I needed something to warm me up. I scrounged through the freezer and pantry, and realized that I had everything to sort of throw together chili. I let it simmer on the stove most of the afternoon, made some mini-bread bowls, and had an icy glass of cider from the orchard up the street. It was perfect for that blustery fall day.
Ingredients
- 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil (to Coat Pan)
- 1 Medium Onion, Small Dice
- 1 Red Bell Pepper, Small Dice
- 2 Stalks Celery, Small Dice
- 4 Cloves Garlic, Minced

- 1 teaspoon Cumin
- 1 teaspoon Coriander
- 2 Tablespoons Chili Powder
- ½ Tablespoons Cayenne (more Or Less Depending On Desired Heat)
- 1-⅓ pound Ground Turkey (that's What The Container Of Shady Brook Farms Ground Turkey Was - A Little More Or A Little Less Is Fine)
- 2 cans Great Northern Beans, 14 Oz
- 1 can Garbanzo Beans, 14 Oz
- ½ cups Corn, Fresh If Possible, Frozen If Not
