Turkey Chili (High Fiber, Low-Calorie and Low-Fat) image

After an evening of Recipe#248921 and Recipe#23385, I felt like I needed to unclog my arteries a bit and came up with this delicious recipe for chili. I know the ingredients sound like an odd combination, but it is delicious and healthy for you. You can make this big batch and freeze some for later.
