Ground Turkey Chili

I loved this recipe.I tripled it right away. I mixed it up a bit,changed the beans around added a little more of the spices like KM Soparano suggested in the original write-up ("spice to taste" is I believe what is written)...and because all I had at home was chicken boulion cubes I used three of them and added three bottles of this winter dark ale that I mistakenly bought at Christmas. It was aweful to drink but tasted fantastic in the chili.I've bookmarked the recipe with my own personal notes (chili is always a personal thing...) and I WILL make it again. Love the addition of cinnamon btw. :-)

I did not care for this chili at all. First, a 10 ounce can of tomatoes is way way way too little for chili. I added four times that much. Also, there was not enough flavor. It's as if you had to double or triple all of the spices. The purée of a can of beans was nothing short of disgusting. It made the chili creamy. And who wants creamy chili? I'm always on the lookout for a good turkey chili recipe, and I continue to be.

Very good. Loved the cinnamon! Not fond of overly spicy, so cut the heat so it had a nice bite, but was not too much. Didn't have white beans so substituted pintos for the pureed part and added a can of rinsed/drained kidney beans with the black beans. Btw, added a little more chili powder, cumin & black pepper. Will definitely make it again. Thx!

The only thing I omitted was the canellini beans. I don't like my chili too thick so I didn't want to get one more dish dirty. I like my food with a bit more kick so I used jalapeños and also a green bell pepper. It was delicious. I agree with some reviewers about the cinnamon; I think I will leave it out next time. I actually was a bit concerned about it the whole time so I used only 1/4 tsp of cinnamon and I was still able to taste it and smell it. The DH loved it. We topped it with cheddar cheese and ate it with french bread. Thanks for sharing. I will never have to buy the chili spice mix again :-)

This is actually really yummy! My somewhat picky husband really liked it too! I used 2 cans of Navy beans instead (1 can blended) and it still turned out delicious! I've been trying to use ground LF turkey in new ways and this is perfect. Great healthy alternative to chili. I already printed and put into my recipe book in the kitchen so I can make over again!

Everyone LOVED this recipe. The second time I made this chili I used ground chicken and added green beans it was just as good. Can't wait to make it again.

This was fantastic! My husband and I loved it. BOTH my daughters liked it - yahoo! We made it early in the day so 1/2 of it was gone before dinner. Thanks for the yummy recipe.

This was a fabulous recipe - even my fussy 9 year old ate most of it. It was fast, easy, and made my house smell like I'm a real cook. I added some leftover risotto and pieces of potato to clean out my fridge. Wouldn't like add the potatoes next time (different texture).

This was a perfect chili for a rainy day... we had it with corn bread muffins and it was a done deal.... so delicious. The cinnamon adds a fresh new taste to chili!

I love it! I don't care for 'regular chili' but this is tasty and I will make it again. The only thing I did differently was add an additional cup of corn and I didn't puree the beans. The texture turned out just fine and I had one less thing to wash! Thank you KMSoprano for this excellent recipe! I loved the cinnamon flavor!

This was a good hearty soup, although I don't know if I would call it a real chili. I tried this recipe because I liked how many spices went into it, but when I taste tested towards the end of cooking it was suprisingly bland. I had to add a good amount of hot sauce and double the cumin and chili powder before it had any flavor. Next time I make chili, I think I will opt for a more traditional recipe, but this is still a nice healthy alternative for people willing to try something different.

This was pretty good and could have been great if it had any heat. Even though I doubled the hot sauce it was still very mild. Note that the recipe does not tell you when to add the hot sauce, so I added it at the same time as the black beans. Next time I will add jalapenos and increase the chili powder. It was healthy and tasted that way!

You are a smart cookie! A great recipe in under 30 minutes!! I love the pureed step of beans as well, but my grocery store didn't have any cannellini beans so I used pinto. Very nice flavor. I doubled it and will put the leftovers in the freezer for another quick dinner.

This chili is awesome! I added green and red bell peppers and it was a huge hit in my house! It will definitely be on my regular rotation now!

I have made your recipe twice and I love it!! This time, I just needed to use up some things in my kitchen, so I had a can of chili beans in mild sauce instead of the black beans, cannelini beans and corn and only had a can of tomato paste and a tomato cut up instead of a can of diced. I did have a can of green chiles, however. I must say, I loved it this way!! I also use a lot of spice because I love a kick! Thank you for the great recipe, it was awesome both times I made it and will be making it in the future for sure!

I added rinsed and drained kidney beans and tomato sauce to get the color and consistency my hubby likes. It was great topped with sliced green onions and cheese. As with most chili, even better the next day.

This recipe was really delicious. It also freezes really well so I just make a huge vat of it and stick it in the freezer. I did change this a little to my liking. I substituted kidney beans for the cannellini beans and I didn't use any corn. Instead of the brown sugar I use a natural sweetner that's called Stevia and I used only a packet of it. It came out delicious and I'm planning on making it again. Keep posting your great recipes and thank you!

This chili is very tasty! I omitted the cinnamon and brown sugar, and used a drained 29-oz can of diced tomatoes plus a couple tablespoons of chopped jalanpenos instead of RoTel. I adore the idea of pureeing the cannellini beans in order to thicken this up-- what a great tip! Thanks so much.
