This one originally came from Top Secret Recipes. I personally like this one better than the Crockpot Chili recipe
2 pounds ground turkey or lean ground beef
29 ounces tomato sauce
2 16-oz. cans kidney beans, drained and rinsed
2 16-oz. cans pinto beans, drained and rinsed
1 cup diced onion
14 1/2 oz. can diced tomatoes with green chilies
14 1/2 oz. can diced tomatoes with seasoning (chili seasoning or green chili, or italian seasoning)
sm can green chilies (optional for added hotness)
1/2 cup celery, diced
2-3 teaspoons ground cumin
3-4 tablespoons chili powder
1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper
1-2 tsp. unsweetened cocoa powder
2 cups water
2 c. V8 (or tomato juice)
original recipe called for 2 tsp. salt (I omitted it because the canned tomatoes/sauce all have salt)
Brown turkey/beef and drain thoroughly. Combine remaining ingredients and simmer 2-3 hours. This makes a lot. I put mine in crockpot but it takes a large one. I use two cans of Rotel instead of the cans of tomatoes. This last time I used Rotel chili flavor and it was great!
I made chili from a recipe on this site for phase 1. It is amazing. A bowl keeps me satisfied and very full. I feel like this is cheating...it seems too good to be true!!!
Is this really ok for Phase 1? Gosh I hope so.

I moved your post into the appropriate thread. I hope you don't mind!
And, yes, it's totally Phase 1 friendly, so enjoy it guilt-free.
This recipe doesn't even come close to fitting in my slow cooker but it's soooo good. Here's my modified recipe:
1 tsp oil
1 onion
1T minced garlic
~800g lean ground turkey
2 cans Heinz chili style beans
1 can Aylmer's diced chili-seasoned tomatoes, undrained
1 can Aylmer's fire roasted diced tomatoes, undrained
1 can (213mls) Hunt's tomato sauce
2 celery sticks, diced
2 teaspoons ground cumin
3 tablespoons chili powder
1.5 teaspoons black pepper
1.5 tsp unsweetened cocoa powder
Cook onion & garlic until onion softens. Add ground turkey and cook until browned. Transfer to crockpot. Add all other ingredients to the crockpot and cook on low for 6 hours or until dinner time... whichever comes last.
Serve it on top of a bed of smashed cauliflower and topped with a little sour cream and sharp cheddar!

I am new to SB...actually we are starting Monday.....this sounds so good...I LOVE chili!! What is considered one serving please? TIA
Holy cow this is awesome. Way too much ingredients for my little crockpot. Still simmering on low as the celery needed to soften some. I used 1/2 the amount of ground turkey breast, only because I forgot to get a second pack, but kept everything else the same. Perfect lunch for this dreary day. Thank you for sharing!!
