3 cups of Imagine Organic Beef or Chicken Broth or Stock

1 8 oz. can tomato sauce

1 28 oz. can of whole tomatoes

3 15 oz. cans of Westbrae® white beans

¼ teaspoon of ground cinnamon

1 ½ teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon of unsweetened cocoa powder

2 bay leaves

¼ cup chili powder

1 ½ lb lean ground turkey

1 ½ teaspoon ground cumin

1 ½ teaspoon of dried oregano

2 medium onions chopped

1 tablespoon of vegetable oil

Garnish:

1 cup of chopped red onion

1 cup of chopped fresh cilantro

1 cup of sour cream or low fat yogurt

Heat the oil in a heavy large saucepan.
Over a medium heat, add the onions; sauté until tender for about 10 minutes. Add the oregano and cumin; stir for 1 minute, increase the heat to medium high, add the ground turkey; stir to break up until no longer pink.
Keeping the beans aside, add the rest of the ingredients, breaking up the tomatoes with the back of a spoon as you stir. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat: simmer 45 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the beans and cook for a further 10 minutes.
Discard the bay leaves. Ladle chili into warm bowls and top with chopped red onion, cilantro and sour cream. Serve immediately.
