Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons olive oil (or canola oil)
- 1 cup frozen chopped onion & pepper mix
- 2 tablespoons jalapeño pepper (minced, seeded)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 pound lean ground turkey (97% lean preferred)

Directions
Heat oil over medium heat in large skillet. Add diced onion-green pepper, jalapeño and garlic; cook 2 to 3 minutes, until vegetables are tender.
Add ground turkey to vegetable mixture; cook over medium heat 6 to 8 minutes, until turkey is no longer pink, breaking turkey into crumbles. Stir in au jus powder, chili powder, salt, and cumin; cook 30 seconds more.
Stir in beans, applesauce, tomatoes, and green chilies. Bring to a boil; reduce heat. Gently simmer over low to medium-low heat, covered, about 15 minutes or until desired consistency. Ladle chili into bowls.
