Zone Chili

Mary Conover of CFSCC let me borrow one of her Zone cookbooks called Cooking in the Zone. This recipe is one of many that I am looking forward to trying, and I hope they are all as good as this one! To make: Heat tsp olive oil over medium heat in a large pot. Add 2 medium sized peppers (I used one red bell pepper and one yellow) diced, 1/3 cup diced onion, 2 minced garlic cloves and saute the mixture for about 5 minutes. Add 2 tsp chili powder and 1 pound ground turkey and cook until well browned. Add 1 1/2 cups diced tomatoes, 1 can dark red kidney beans (drained), 1/2 tsp salt, and 1 tsp red pepper flakes. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to simmer for about 20-30 minutes. Sprinkle with cheese to serve.
