Abby's Quick and Healthy Turkey Chili

1 tbsp olive oil
4 pounds ground turkey
minced onions to taste
1 6-ounce can tomato paste
chopped tomatoes (about 28 ounces)
1 jar Heinz Chili Sauce
half of large jar of your favorite Marinara Sauce
4 15.5-ounce cans of your favorite beans, drained
     I use black beans, pinto beans, red beans, red kidney beans, pink beans, pinto beans....
chili powder to taste
cayenne (red) pepper to taste
garlic powder to taste

In a large saucepan on top of the stove,  heat the olive oil over medium heat.  Add the ground turkey and brown all 4 pounds.  Drain the browned meat in a colander and return to pan.  Add the rest of the ingredients and simmer, stirring occasionally.

Chili freezes well so it's a great make ahead meal for last minute dinners.  Eliminate the ground turkey and you have a perfect vegetarian chili.  You can add fresh garlic, onions, and peppers if you saute them before adding to the browned turkey.
