    Crock Pot Black Bean Chili

    1 lb. ground turkey breast or extra lean ground beef
    1 large onion - finely chopped
    2 fresh garlic cloves, minced
    1 can (15oz) black beans - rinsed and drained
    1 large can (29 oz) diced tomatoes
    2 tbls tomato paste
    2 Cups water
    3 peppers diced: one red, one green, one yellow
    7 oz diced green chilies
    1 tbls. chili powder
    1 tsp. ground cumin
    1 tsp. salt
    1 tsp. black pepper
    In a nonstick skillet over medium heat, cook ground meat and garlic until meat is no longer pink; drain. Transfer meat to crockpot. Add remaining ingredients and stir until combined. Cook on high for 4 hours.
    I figured my calories for eight servings and using 93/7 turkey breast = 181 Calories.

    Edited to add protein = 19, fat = 6
