JESSICA'S EASY TURKEY AND BLACK BEAN CHILI



Jessica's Easy Turkey and Black Bean Chili image

Who doesn't love a bowl of hot chili on a cold fall day? My friend whipped this up in less than a half hour after a quick trip to the grocery story and I was AMAZED by how good it was. The most amazing part is that groceries themselves cost less than $10. Served best with a bit of shredded cheese and a dollop of sour cream and some corn tortilla rounds.
