Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 1 medium onion finely diced
  • 2 tbsp chili powder
  • 1 ½ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp garlic minced
  • 1 can canned kidney beans 540 mL, rinsed
  • 1 ¾ cups tomato sauce
  • 3 ½ cups low sodium vegetable broth substitute poultry broth
  • 3 cups whole grain macaroni dry
  • ½ cup milk
  • 2 cups cheddar cheese shredded

Instructions
 

  • In a large skillet, brown turkey (you may want to lightly grease the pan if your turkey is very lean) on medium-high heat.
  • Add onion, chili powder, salt and garlic and cook until onion is softened, about 4-5 minutes.
  • Stir in beans, tomato sauce, and broth and bring to a simmer.
  • Stir in dry macaroni. Bring back to a simmer, then cover and reduce heat to medium low. Simmer for 10-15 minutes, just until pasta is tender, stirring often.
  • Stir in milk and cheese (reserving a little for the top if you prefer). Serve.
