Ingredients




20 ounces lean ground turkey (beef if you prefer)
1 cup tomato sauce (preferably no salt added)
1 cup fresh salsa (medium or hot if you can handle)
1 can (15 oz) pinto beans, well rinsed and drained
cayenne pepper

Preparation

1 In a large pot, brown the turkey for about 5-6 minutes, drain any fat if necessary. 2 Add the remaining ingredients. I use at least 2-3 T of cayenne pepper and I usually throw some red pepper flakes in as well. 3 Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce your heat to low to simmer for 15-20. Serve in a bowl with a bit of shredded cheese or sour cream on top. with corn bread is perfect!
