Ingredients

- 1 pound of lean ground turkey- 29 oz can tomato sauce- 27 oz can of chili beans (in chili sauce)-15.5 oz can dark red kidney beans- packet of taco seasoning - packet of chili seasoning- 1/2 TBSP ground cumin- 1/2 TBSP garlic powder- 1 tspn Tony Chacheres Original Creole Seasoning

Directions

In a large pot - simply dump in your beans, tomato sauce, chili seasoning packet, ground cumin, Tony Chacheres, and Garlic Powder. Stir well to combine all ingredients and start warming on medium/low heat. Don't forget to stir frequently.

While the ingredients in your chili are warming up, grab a soup pan and start browning your turkey. Once the turkey is browned, rinse, and add your taco seasoning mix to the browned ground turkey. Follow the directions on the taco seasoning mix.

When your taco meat is ready, add to chili pot, stir, and cook on low heat until all ingredients have reached desired warmth.

Substitute chili powder instead of chili seasoning packet if you want to cut down on the sodium. Substitute a small can of chili beans if you don't like kidney beans.

This is fast, easy and delicious! Nobody will know it is semi-homemade and semi-healthy!

Fajita Chicken

Wrap this chicken in tortillas with whatever extra fillings you enjoy. Delicious! (And much better than that fajita seasoning you buy in packets!)

Chicken Enchilada-Style for the Slow Cooker

I threw this together from what I had in my pantry at the time. With proper planning, I'd use fat-free soup and sour cream. It is delicious as-is, but fat could certainly stand to be cut.

You can put the chicken into the slow cooker while still frozen, so prep time is virtually non-existent! A great choice to throw in before bed for lunch at work or in the morning for that night's dinner.

This recipe calls for two pounds of chicken, also because it was what I had available (three large breasts), but would make a great meal with just one pound, too.

I served this along with brown rice and black beans. Tasty!Submitted by: BLUEKITTEN
