Veggified Chili in the Crockpot

1 lb ground turkey
1 lb lean ground beef
2 cans beans (I use a mix of kidney and cannellini beans)
2-3 bell peppers chopped
2 zucchini or yellow squash chopped
1 can mild Rotel diced tomatoes with green chilis
2 cans diced tomatoes
1 8 oz can tomato sauce
2 garlic cloves, minced
3 Tablespoons Chili powder
1 teaspoon pepper




*Healthy Fat options - either add olives to the chili or a small serving of nuts on the side as a snack



Brown turkey and beef and drain.  Transfer to crockpot. Add the rest of the ingredients. Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours or high for 4 hours.
Makes about 8 servings, according to MyFitnessPal calculations, roughly 335 calories per serving.
