Seasoned canned tomatoes and Italian turkey sausage add instant life to chili. Try tomatoes with different seasonings to vary the flavour of your chili.

Ingredients

Black pepper

¼ pinch(es)

Uncooked turkey sausage

1 pound(s), hot-Italian variety

Canned diced tomatoes

14½ oz, with garlic and onions, undrained

Canned pinto beans

15 oz, undrained

Canned diced tomatoes

14½ oz, with chilies, undrained

Onion

1 medium

Table salt

¼ tsp(s), or more to taste

Instructions

  1. Remove sausage from casing and place in a 4-quart or large slow cooker; break up meat with a spoon. Add beans, both cans of diced tomatoes with their liquid and onion; stir.
  2. Cover slow cooker; cook on low setting for 5 to 6 hours. Stir in salt and pepper; garnish with chopped onion if desired and serve. Yields about 1 1/2 cups chili per serving.

Notes

You might find raw Italian turkey sausage in links; four links are about 1 pound. Use two cans of diced tomatoes with chiles if you prefer a very spicy dish.
