Slow Cooker Chunky Turkey/Beef Chili


I made this, served it as a frito chili pie, Jake wasn't real crazy about it, he said it was good just not "chili-like enough" for him, But I thought it was delicious and will be making it again!

INGREDIENTS:
1 pound ground turkey or ground beef (I used beef)
1/2 cup coarsely chopped onion
2 cans (14.5 ounces each) diced tomatoes with juice
1 can (16 ounces) pinto beans, drained, rinsed
1/2 cup chunky salsa, your favorite
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup shredded Cheddar or Mexican blend cheese
1 to 2 tablespoons sliced black olives

PREPARATION:
In a large skillet over medium heat, brown ground turkey and onion. Drain off excess fat. Transfer browned mixture to the crockpot with tomatoes, beans, salsa, chili powder, and cumin. Stir gently to blend ingredients.

Cover and cook on LOW setting for 5 to 6 hours. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Serve with a dollop of sour cream and a little shredded cheese and black olive slices.
