    Chili Powder - 1 Tablespoon
    Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
    Old Bay Seasoning - 2 teaspoons

    Black Beans - 1 can (15+ ounces)
    Kidney Beans - 1 can (15+ ounces)
    Diced Tomatoes - 1 can (15+ ounces)
    Chopped Onions - 1/2 cup
    Ground Turkey - 1 pound
    Olive Oil - 1 Tablespoon

    Add later:
    Grape Jelly - 1 Tablespoon
    Heinz Ketchup - 1 1/2 Tablespoons
    Cheddar Cheese - 3 cubes (each 1 inch)

Directions

Using a small bowl, mix together all the dry ingredients to make the chili seasoning. Set aside.

Open all the canned ingredients, and set aside. (Do not drain any of them...the liquid will be used in the recipe.)

Chop the onion, and set it aside as well.

Put olive oil in large pot over Medium heat, then add the ground turkey. Brown turkey, stirring occasionally, until it is fully cooked, with no pink spots left.

Stir in the Chili Seasoning you made earlier.
Next, pour in all the canned ingredients, and stir them well.

Heat the mixture, stirring occasionally until it starts to bubble. Reduce heat to Low, cover, and simmer for about an hour. (Check it every few minutes, stirring well, to keep the chili from sticking to the bottom.)

Reduce heat to Warm, and stir in grape jelly and ketchup.
Next, put in the cheese cubes, replace cover, and let it sit until the cheese melts. After a few minutes, remove cover, and stir it well.

Serve and enjoy!

    So glad you like it! I just realized that I never mentioned when you should add the chopped onions. They should be added with the canned ingredients. Silly me!
