1 Point Chili

This is the recipe as written from Weight Watchers. Look to the bottom for variation. The cornbread addition is really good - came from a different "company's coming" chili recipe but I think it would be fine to add to this.

10 oz lean ground turkey
1 med onion, diced
2 (28 oz) cans diced tomatoes
2 med. zucchini, diced
2 med. yellow squash, diced
1 (15 oz) can black beans, rinsed
1 (15 0z) FF RS beef broth
4 celery stalks, diced
2 green peppers, diced
1 pkg dry chilli seasoning (1 1/4 oz)

Spray large nonstick skillet with Pam, set on med. heat, add turkey, onion, saute till browned.  Drain. Add tomatoes, zucchini, squash, beans, broth, celery, peppers, seasoning. Bring to simmer over med heat. Simmer until vegetables are tender, about 30 minutes.  1 Cup = 1 WW point

Variations:
  • Prepare one 8 1/2 oz package of cornbread as directed on package. Stir in 1/4 cup shredded cheese and 1/2 tsp hot pepper sauce. Spoon over hot chili and spread evenly so that chili is completely covered. Sprinkle lightly with chili powder. Microwave  uncovered on high for 7 - 9 minutes or put in 400 oven and cook until cornbread is firm, about 15 minutes. Let sit for 5 - 10 minutes before serving.
  • Add diced green chillies, 1-12 oz bottle of beer, and 1 T hot pepper sauce
