Paleo Crockpot Turkey Chili (Easy)

This hearty and nourishing chili can be left in the crockpot so it’s warm for dinner when you return home.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 1 tablespoon olive or coconut oil
  • l large garlic clove, minced
  • 1/2 inch onion chopped (yellow or red will work)
  • 2 cups chopped diced peppers (about 1/2 of a red and 1/2 of a green) pepper (could use yellow also). Shortcut: use frozen sliced peppers and chop them.
  • 1 cup celery, chopped and diced (about 5 large stalks)
  • 1 cup carrots, chopped and diced (about 5 large carrots) Shortcut: use frozen sliced carrots.
  • 28 ounce can crushed tomatoes
  • 28 ounce can fire-roasted petite diced tomatoes
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon basil
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 tablespoon oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper

Instructions

  1. In a skillet, saute onion and garlic until translucent in 1 tablespoon olive oil, about 5 minutes. Keep a close watch to make sure onion and garlic don’t burn.

  2. Add ground turkey to skillet and brown and cook turkey until no longer pink.

  3. Add turkey mixture and all other ingredients into your slow cooker. Stir the ingredients to combine. Then put on the lid and set the temperature.

  4. I cook this two ways – on high for 3-4 hours if I want/need it sooner, or 6-8 hours on low if I have the time to wait. Both ways are great.
