For the Love of Fall

Tonight it was a bit breezy, dark, and moody and I was CRAVING some comfort food! So I decided to make a tex-mex turkey chili with homemade ww cornbread. It was so amazing and I can wait for you to try this on a drury day.. it will def pep you up!
Tex-Mex Chili
1 lb ground turkey
1/4 c chopped red onion
2 cans ranch beans (jalapeno style)
1 can pinto beans
1 can kidney beans
1 small can or 1/2 c salsa verde
1 can fire roasted tomatoes
1 can or large jar tomato juice (w/ pulp)
1 can chick broth (fill up a bean can)
1 pack chili seasoning (salt free)
2 bay leafs
to taste: oregano, pepper, garlic powder, and cumin (about a T each)

In a large non-stick pot over med-high heat cook red onion and turkey. Then add all remaining ingredients to pot and simmer over med-low heat until hot. You can simmer for a few hours if you have time to intensify all your flavors! Remove bay leafs and serve with fresh cilantro, chopped jalapeno, lime wedges, and avacado. You'll love it!
For the ww cornmuffins:
Purchase a container of cornmeal and prepare to the manufactures instructions on the box. But, sub whole wheat flour for all purpose, apple sauce for oil, and agave nectar for sugar. These turn out better than the box and they are super simple!
Hope you love! Muah!! <3
