This is a great recipe to make when Thanksgiving has come to pass and you are left with all of these leftovers! I had over six bags of leftover turkey last year, and was desperate to find a way to use them up! In fact, I still had a bag of turkey in my freezer this last week, so I ended up making this again! Mike even jumped in to make a few changes to the recipe, but it was still really good!
Here's the recipe: Turkey Chili
Turkey, cut up into small pieces (Also watch for bones that snuck in!)
Black, pinto or kidney beans (If they are hard, soak them first!)
V8 tomato juice (I use the Spicy flavoring)
Onion, diced
Chili powder
Cayenne pepper powder
Tomatoes, if desired, diced.
Heat the turkey pieces, onion, chili powder and cayenne until warm. The onions will start to cook. Add the beans and V8 juice. Stir occasionally, but simmer on medium to low heat for 30 minutes. If you choose to add fresh tomatoes, add them in about three to five minutes before serving!
Enjoy!
