This is a wonderfully satisfying stew. You can make it as spicy as you want. We used no-salt tomatoes, and didn't miss the sodium at all. As a side note, this can also be done on the stove top by pan-frying the turkey in a dutch oven and then adding the ingredients and simmering for at least 30 minutes. Both methods work great. We serve this over brown rice.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs turkey tenderloins, cut into 3/4 inch pieces
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes with mild green chilies
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained but not rinsed
1 (15 1/2 ounce) can pinto beans in chili sauce, undrained
1 red bell pepper, cut into 3/4 inch pieces
1 green bell pepper, cut into 3/4 inch pieces
3/4 cup onion, chopped
3/4 cup salsa
3 garlic cloves, minced
fresh cilantro (optional)
Directions:
