Turkey Chili

You know how you want chili on a cold day, but sometimes chili can take a long time to cook, and not to mention it's not so healthy for you?

Well your in luck! I found the perfect recipe for your chili needs! Straight out of the 21 day fix extreme meal plan. :)

3 cloves of garlic, chopped (I used garlic powder)

1.5 tsp. of ground cumin

1 Tbsp. of chili powder

1/2 tsp. of sea salt

1/4 tsp. of cayenne pepper (optional, and I didn't use it)

2, 15oz cans black beans (I used 1 black bean and one can of corn)

1, 15oz can of diced tomatoes, no sugar added

12 fresh cilantro springs, finely chopped (for garnish, optional, I didn't use this either)
