Three Bean Turkey Chili

This is the easiest recipe for chili I have ever seen. The recipe calls for the use of a crockpot but I only had 45 minutes so I did it on the stove. It took 30 minutes start to finish.


Ingredients:

3/4 lb. ground turkey
1/2 onion, chopped
1/2 bell pepper, chopped 
1 can  (28 oz.) diced tomatoes, undrained
1 jar (16 oz.) salsa (mild or medium)
3/4 can  (15 oz.) black beans, rinsed 
3/4 can (15 oz.) kidney beans, rinsed
3/4 can  (15 oz.) great Northern beans, rinsed
1 tsp. chili powder
1 tsp.  ground cumin
1 tsp. salt
pepper 
1 pkg. (7 oz.)  Shredded Cheddar Cheese
  
Crockpot method:
In a saute pan, cook turkey meat with onion and pepper until turkey is no longer pink. Combine all ingredients except the cheese in a slow cooker. Cook on low 4-5 hours or high 2-3 hours.
 Stove top method:
In a large pot, cook the turkey meat with the onion and pepper until no longer pink. Meanwhile, drain and rinse the three cans of beans, set aside. Once turkey is done, add tomatoes, salsa, beans (you may add more or less depending on your preference), cumin, chili powder, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil and simmer on low for 20 minutes. Serve with cheese.
