WHITE BEAN TURKEY CHILI



1-1/2 pounds lean ground turkey
2 medium onions, chopped
1-1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
1-1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 can (28 ounces) tomato sauce
3 cups beef broth
1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon baking cocoa
2 bay leaves
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 cans (15 ounces each) white kidney or cannelloni beans, rinsed and drained
In a dutch oven or soup kettle, cook the turkey and onions over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Add oregano and cumin; cook and stir 1 minute longer. Stir in the tomatoes, broth, tomato sauce, chili powder, cocoa, bay leaves, salt and cinnamon. Bring to boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 45 minutes. Add beans; heat through. Discard bay leaves before serving.
Yield:12 servings
(I personally like to cook the turkey and onions on the stove and then throw everything into the crock pot and let it cook for a couple of hours. )
