When life gets crazy and you're hungry, but don't feel like cooking, this is your new favorite recipe. I keep the ingredients for this 10-minute turkey chili recipe on hand at all times. This ground turkey chili doesn't taste like you made it in 10 minutes. The budget recipe is rich, filling and flavorful.
To make this high protein recipe (check out the health benefits of protein) you only need six simple ingredients. Here is your shopping list: ground turkey, an onion, a packet of taco seasoning, chili powder, a can of fire-roasted tomatoes and a can of pinto beans. Chopping the onion and opening the cans is the only prep required (plus any toppings you want). Quick and easy! (If you're on a& gluten-free diet, make sure you taco seasoning is free of gluten. Read the label.)
A bowl of this easy Mexican-inspired turkey chili fills you up and gets you out of the kitchen fast. Serve the high-fiber recipes for lunch or dinner with your favorite toppings. We like chopped red onion or green onion, fresh cilantro, avocado, jalapenos, a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkling of grated cheddar cheese. For crunch, toss in some corn chips or tortilla chips. Delicious!

Ingredients
- 1 pound ground turkey
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 ounce (1 packet) taco seasoning
- 1/2 - 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 14.5 ounces (1 can) fire-roasted tomatoes (do not drain)
- 14.5 ounces (1 can) pinto beans (do not drain)
Optional Toppings
- corn chips or tortilla chips
- sour cream
- grated cheese
- chopped red onion
- chopped green onions
- jalapenos
- fresh cilantro
- chopped avocado
Here's how to make it:
- Put the turkey and onion into a soup pot. Cook, breaking up the turkey as you stir, until turkey is cooked through. Add the taco seasoning and chili powder halfway through browning. Season with salt and pepper, if desired. (You could use ground beef instead of turkey. Don't like onion? Leave it out. If you like finer meat in your chili, use a potato masher.)
- Add the tomatoes with their juice and the undrained pinto beans. (You could use regular diced tomatoes.)
- Cook, stirring occasionally, for a few minutes to heat through.
- Taste and add more chili powder, if needed.
- Ladle the chili into bowls and top with your desired toppings. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge. Reheat in the microwave.
