Turkey Chili-crockpot

What's better than a warm bowl of chili in the winter?!  We like ours spicy so keep that in mind when following this recipe.  You may want to opt out on the cayenne pepper or not as much jalapeno peppers.

1 lb of ground turkey
2 cans of black beans- drained (check the ingredients on the can)
1 16 oz can of unsalted tomato sauce
2 tablespoons of tomato paste
1 small can of diced jalapeno peppers
3/4 to 1 cup of water
2 cloves of garlic minced
2 Roma tomatoes chopped
Cayenne pepper
Black pepper
Sea salt
Ground cumin (all of these dry ingredients are to your liking)
Cilantro- chopped (optional)
Non fat plain Greek yogurt (optional-note it's just like sour cream!)
Avocado (sliced-optional)

Add all ingredients to the crock pot and cook on low for 2 hours.  I added some chopped cilantro a dab of plain Greek yogurt and a few slices of fresh avocado and ate with some whole wheat sesame crackers.  You could also add some all natural corn chips for a taco soup! 

Enjoy!
