Instructions

  1. Grab a large pot and bring to medium-high heat with 2 Tbsp oil. Brown turkey until medium rare, then add the onion and bell pepper. Cook until veggies soften, approx. 2-3 min.

  2. Add tomato paste, ground Chipotle pepper and the other spices. Mix well and cook for an additional minute. Then stir in sweet potato, crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, kidney beans, sugar, 1 tsp salt, and a couple of grindings of black pepper and the broth.
