Instructions
After your beans have soaked overnight, drain and rinse.
Place them in a large pot and add water so that their is an inch of water above the beans.
Starting with a tsp of cayenne pepper and a tsp of chili powder add to beans. Then add salt and pepper to your taste. Add more as beans simmer depending on your personal preference.
Turn burner on low heat and allow to simmer.
In a frying pan add your 2 pounds of ground turkey. Add more seasoning to the meat if you desire. Because turkey has less flavor than beef I do add a little more salt, pepper and chili powder.
When turkey is nice and brown, drain grease and add the meat to the pot of beans.
Add your can of tomato puree, quart of canned tomato with vegetables OR stewed tomatoes, green bell pepper and onion.
Continue cooking on low heat for 6-8 hours, checking often to taste test for flavor.
