Ingredients: 

  • 1 pound lean ground turkey

  • 1 small onion, chopped

  • 2 cups chicken broth

  • 1 can (15 ounces) sweet potato puree or canned pumpkin

  • 1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chiles

  • 1 tablespoon chili powder

  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin

  • 1 teaspoon curry powder

  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

  • 1 can (15-1/2 ounces) great northern beans, rinsed and drained

Instructions: 

  • In a large skillet, cook turkey and onion over medium heat until turkey is no longer pink and onion is tender, 5-7 minutes, breaking up turkey into crumbles; drain. Transfer to a 3- or 4-qt. slow cooker.

  • Stir in broth, sweet potato puree, chiles and seasonings. Cook, covered, on low 4-5 hours. Stir in beans; cook until heated through, about 1 hour. If desired, top with sour cream, cilantro and red onions. Freeze option: Freeze cooled chili in freezer containers. To use, partially thaw in refrigerator overnight. Heat through in a saucepan, stirring occasionally; add broth if necessary.
