Ingredients

  • Cooking spray
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp. canola or corn oil
  • 1 medium or large onion, chopped
  • 20 oz. ground, skinless turkey breast
  • 2 large garlic cloves (minced) or 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
  • 2 tsp. chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp. pepper
  • 1/2 tsp. ground cumin
  • 15.5 oz. canned, no-salt-added pinto beans (rinsed, drained)

Directions

  1. Lightly spray a Dutch oven with cooking spray. Add the oil and heat over medium-high heat, swirling to coat the bottom. Cook the onion for 3 minutes, or until soft, stirring occasionally.
  2. Reduce the heat to medium. Stir in the turkey. Cook for 5 minutes, or until browned, stirring frequently to turn and break up the turkey.
