How to Make this Recipe

Step 1: In a big pot or stockpot, warm up some olive oil on medium heat. Toss in the onions and bell peppers, cooking them until the onions turn translucent and smell amazing, which should take about 3-4 minutes.

Step 2: Next, add the garlic and give it a quick stir for about 30 seconds. Then, throw in the turkey, breaking it apart with a spoon as you sauté it until it’s nicely browned and fully cooked.

Step 3: Mix in the tomatoes, pumpkin, beans, corn, and your favorite spices. Bring everything to a boil, then lower the heat and let it simmer for 20-30 minutes, stirring it occasionally.

Step 4: Top it off with sour cream, cheese, avocado, and cilantro before serving.
