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

I made this and it was WONDERFUL!! However, when I "created" this dish in my WW app, it shows that it a 6 point dish!! Eek! That's a big difference. Any ideas why there is such a discrepency in points?
Jenna says
Yes, Cook ground turkey in a skillet until done and then add everything to a crockpot and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours.
Rainee says
Hi there! Can you make this recipe in the crockpot?
Jenna says
Any large pot should be fine. Just watch so it doesn't burn on the bottom! Thanks.
Erin says
