This Turkey, Corn, and Black Bean chili is simply divine. I like to play around with the spices in my chili. Usually, it's a combo of 2 tablespoons of chili powder, 1 teaspoon of cumin, and some cayenne pepper or crushed red pepper flakes. The addition of canned chipotle peppers in this is wonderful and I will be adding some every time I make chili now! Top this with some reduced fat cheddar cheese, sour cream or cilantro. That would be additional points of course, one serving of this chili is only 5 points.
This recipe has been recently updated on 2/16/2020. One of the ingredients in the recipe was a bag of frozen black beans and corn. Some people can't seem to find that item in the grocery store. If you can not find this item, please sub 15 oz cans of black bean and corn.
I've mentioned before that I am going back to school for web design. This site runs on wordpress and I'd just LOVE to be able to come up with my own wordpress foodie theme. Maybe even to sell on the interwebs one day too. Spent about 3 or so hours today just watching video tutorials on how to make them and so far it's been really fun learning how to make my own theme! It also helped to take an online class on PHP too, since this page runs on that. If you own a wordpress theme blog, you've probably seen the code before

Can this be made in a crock pot?

Yum!! I made it for dinner last night and I couldn't get enough! I made it with chick peas instead of black beans--not a fan of black beans. I put a little more of the chipotle chili's/adobo but everything else was as directed. I didn't eat the fat free cheddar cheese but it didn't need it.
I had extra points left for dinner, so I had an extra helping. And I just ate more reheated for lunch today-so good. I'm already looking forward to making it again, so easy and quick!
A+++++++++++
