2 1/2 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon ground coriander

1 tablespoon olive oil (yes, this is an off plan ingredient)

1 red bell pepper diced
1 green bell pepper diced
1 large jalapeno chile pepper seeded and minced
2 cloves garlic minced
1 tablespoon brown sugar (yes, this is an off plan ingredient)
28 ounces canned tomatoes, no salt added

Recipe

1. Combine seasonings (chili powder through ground red pepper) in a small bowl and set aside.

2. Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add half of the seasoning mixture. Cook and stir 20 seconds. Add onion; cook, stirring often, until onion softens, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the bell peppers, jalapeno and garlic; cook 2 minutes longer.

3. Add brown sugar, tomatoes with their liquid, and remaining seasoning mixture; reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, until mixture thickens slightly, about 15 minutes. Add beans and turkey; cook 10 minutes longer. Stir in cilantro.
