INGREDIENTS
1 medium Russet Potato
3 ounces Lean Ground Turkey (93% lean)
1 ounce Sharp Cheddar Cheese
1/2 cup Canned Diced Tomatoes
1/4 medium Red Onion
1/4 medium Green Bell Pepper
1/4 cup Kidney Beans
1 teaspoon Chili Powder
1 teaspoon Cumin
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Thoroughly scrub the russet potato and pat dry.
Pierce the potato several times with a fork, then rub lightly with a small amount of salt. Place it directly on the oven rack or on a baking sheet and bake for about 45-60 minutes until the skin is crispy and the interior is tender.
While the potato bakes, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the lean ground turkey and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks.
Dice the red onion and green bell pepper finely. Add them to the skillet along with the turkey once it begins to brown. Sauté until the vegetables soften slightly.
Stir in the canned diced tomatoes, kidney beans, chili powder, and cumin. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Allow the mixture to simmer on low heat for 10-15 minutes so that the flavors meld, stirring occasionally.
Once the potato is baked, slice it open lengthwise and fluff the interior with a fork. Spoon the warm turkey chili mixture generously over the potato.
Top with the sharp cheddar cheese. Optionally, if you prefer the cheese melted, place the loaded potato back in the oven for an additional 3-5 minutes until the cheese softens.
Serve immediately and enjoy your balanced, protein-packed meal.
