Smoked Turkey and White Bean Chili

So, I would have posted this earlier, but we had flu going around our house for 2 weeks.  This was a great leftover turkey dish for Thanksgiving.  I'm definitely going to make this again!  You could use any cooked turkey, I just happened to have smoked turkey on-hand because we smoked one and roasted one.  The smoky flavor really made this dish stand out! 

I served this with ciabata rolls that I had sliced in half and broiled with a little bit of butter and grated parmesan.

Ingredients

3 C chopped, cooked turkey
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 small onion, chopped
1 can (15.5 oz) cannellini beans, rinsed/drained
1 large can whole, peeled tomatoes (undrained, coarsely chopped)
32 oz chicken broth
2 medium zucchini, chopped
1 C shredded carrots
3 tsp chili powder
1 tsp dried thyme, crushed
Salt and pepper, to taste
Cooking spray

Cooking Instructions

In a large pot (that has been coated with cooking spray), cook onion and garlic for 3 minutes over medium heat.  Add the cannellini beans and broth.  Bring to a boil; reduce heat.  Simmer for 20 minutes, covered.

Add tomatoes, zucchini, carrots, turkey and dry ingredients.  Return to boiling, then reduce heat and simmer for 20 more minutes.

Enjoy!
