Ingredients:

• 6 oz lean ground turkey

• 1 can kidney beans, drained and rinsed

• 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed

• 1 can pinto beans, drained and rinsed

• 1/2 cup butternut squash, peeled and cubed

• 1 cup crushed low-sodium tomatoes

• 1/2 large onion, diced

• 1/2 cup corn

• 1/2 cup celery, chopped

• 1 green bell pepper, chopped

• 2 cloves garlic, minced ( I admit I cheat and use a bunch of garlic powder instead)

• 1 tbsp chili powder

• 1 tsp ground cumin

Instructions:

1. In a large soup pot, cook the ground turkey over medium-high heat until fully browned, draining any excess grease.

2. Reduce the heat to medium and stir in the diced onion, chopped green bell pepper, and minced garlic, sautéing for 3 minutes.

3. Add the rinsed kidney, black, and pinto beans, followed by the cubed butternut squash and crushed low-sodium tomatoes.

4. Season with the chili powder and ground cumin, then cover and simmer on low-medium heat for 30 minutes until squash is tender before serving.
