Number of Servings: 6

Ingredients

    1 lb Ground Turkey
    1 can Tomato Paste (low sodium)
    2 tblsp Chili Powder
    2 tsp ground Cumin
    1 tsp Onion Powder
    1 tsp Garlic Powder
    1 Can Tomatoes with Chili Peppers
    4 Cups Chicken Broth (low sodium)
    1 Can Pinto Beans
    1 Onion, chopped
    1 Cup raw Pearl Barley

Directions

Brown the ground turkey in a non-stick skillet. When done, add the tomato paste and spices. Stir to blend.

In a crockpot, combine the chopped onion, tomatoes, broth, pinto beans and barley. Stir in the turkey mixture and stir well to distribute ingredients.

Cover and cook on low for 8 - 10 hours. The Barley will thicken the chili, adding lots of extra fiber. Using low sodium products will make this a very healthy dish that is also low in fat. It can be spiced up as desired with the addition of jalapeno peppers or picante sauce.
