With the fall and winter seasons upon us, it is definitely time for some comfort foods. Pre-paleo I wasn’t a fan of beans, so chili wasn’t one of my favorite foods (well, I loved Melissa Howell’s chili, but that’s it!). Now that Brett and I follow a paleo diet, beans aren’t a problem for us! I found this recipe on Pinterest and became determined to make it!
I did make a few changes and the results were awesome! I’ve cooked it almost weekly since finding it!
Ingredients:
2Tbsp cooking oil (I use bacon grease or olive oil)
2lbs. ground turkey (or beef)
2Tbsp chili powder
2Tbsp cumin
1tsp oregano
1tsp allspice
1tsp salt
1 large white onion diced
4oz. tomato paste
28oz. can crushed tomatoes
14 oz can crushed tomatoes
14 oz can diced tomatoes
Directions:
Place the cooking oil, onion and ground meat into a large saucepan. Brown the meat.
Leaving all the healthy fat from the meat, add all other ingredients!
Simmer for 1-2 hours (I only wait an hour before devouring mine).
I always sliced up an avocado and place in chili!
Enjoy!
