- 1 lb (450g) Lean ground turkey breast or chicken breast (99% fat-free)
- 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
- 1 Bell pepper (any color), chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 can (15 oz) Black beans, rinsed and drained

👩🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions
-
- Brown the Meat: Heat a large non-stick pot over medium heat. Add the ground turkey, onion, bell pepper, and garlic. Cook until the turkey is completely browned and the vegetables are soft (about 6–8 minutes). Break up the meat with a wooden spoon as it cooks.
- Add Spices: Stir in the chili powder, cumin, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Cook for about 1 minute until the spices become fragrant.
- Combine Remaining Ingredients: Pour in the black beans, kidney beans, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, and chicken broth. Stir everything together thoroughly.
- Simmer: Bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for 20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
- Serve: Ladle into bowls and enjoy warm!
💡 WW Pro-Tip: To keep this recipe at 0 Points, garnish with fresh cilantro, chopped green onions, and a dollop of non-fat plain Greek yogurt (which tastes exactly like sour cream!). Avoid adding heavy shredded cheddar or avocado unless you want to track those extra points.
