Quick Chili

Ah, the joys of new foods... Joey will actually eat this chili, despite the bit of tomato. Ready?

You need:

1 package ground turkey
1 can kidney beans, undrained
2 cans tomato sauce (small cans)
1/4 cup chili powder
dash of garlic powder
salt and pepper to taste
1 container sour cream
1 pkg grated cheese
2 pieces of bread or some crunched-up corn chips


Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Place bread or corn chip in bottom of casserole dish (whole grain bread works better than chips if you are watching carbs, and works the same).

Brown turkey.
Add the beans (undrained!), tomato sauce, and seasonings. Stir over medium heat and bring to a bubble. (If you are feeling lazy, you can skip the casserole part and just let this simmer for about 10 minutes. However, the meat will be tenderer if you do the casserole part.)

Pour over bread/chips. Carefully spread the sour cream over the chili mixture, then spread cheese over the top. I use most of the package, but some folks like less cheese.

Bake uncovered for 20-30 minutes, until it bubbles a little and the cheese is melted.

Voila! Yummy chili even Joey will eat. Heck, even Andy will take a couple of bites!
