Real Chili doesn't have beans in it. 
Then again, I don't think real chili has turkey in it either
Normally, any chili recipe will work with ground turkey, so I'd recommend you choose your favorite for beef, and just add that amount of turkey instead.

Jodi,
Aren't beans loaded with carbs?

Using Jodi's recipe, which I made tonight (It was great) I came up with the following nutritional info:
Makes about 13 cups so each serving is about 1 1/3 cups to make the math easy.
Based on 10 Servings:
247 Calories
2.1 Grams Fat
27.7 Grams Carbs
27.7 Grams Protein
7.3 Grams Fibre
I used 2 lbs Purdue Ground Turkey 99% FF
1 can Bushes Kidney Beans
1 can Progresso Canneli Beans
1 can Eden Organic Black Beans
1 15 oz can Contadina Tomato sauce
1 14.5 oz can Red Gold Diced Tomatoes
1 4 oz can Old El Paso Chiles
1 cup of chopped onion (We love onion)
2 tsp Don Enrique chile chipolte sauce
Added a little splenda to sweeten it up
Copied the rest of the recipe verbatim.
Seems too healthy to be true. Tasted incredibly good.
Note:
1/4 cup of Kraft FF Cheddar melted on top only adds 45 calories
2 grams of carbs and 9 grams of protein.
Enjoy!!

crazy question comin' at ya...
when you make recipes like this (one big pot of anything mixed together like beans and/or brown rice, veggies, a meat source, etc.) do you stress on dividing up the portions so your meals are equal? do you worry about making sure the lb of turkey or chicken or whatever is split into equal amounts or just stir it all up, figure out the totals for the whole thing, eyeball it, divide it into what look like equal portions and call it a day?

If I'm using 2lbs of meat and I need 5 oz. per meal then the chili will last me 6 meals. I freeze it tooOriginally posted by nikegurl

The carbs come out to approx. 20G per serving because its approx. 1/2 C beans per serving. Basically I make it all divide it up and call it a day 
I added up the Calories, Carbs, Protein etc... for everything I put in the recipe. After I was done, I took a measuring cup and figured out how many cups the total recipe made which equaled 13. To make the math easy, I just divided the cups by 10.
So each serving is 1.3 cups.
I then took the total cals, carbs, protein etc.. and divided by 10 also. This gave me the nutritional info. I posted. Every time we eat some chili, we measure out 1 1/3 cup.
Voila!
I hope this is the correct way to do it, I'm kind of new at worrying about every carb and gram of protein.

it's the only way that makes sense. my crazy self was thinking 1 of the 10 servings might have more meat in it than another one....so then i started thinking i couldn't cook the meat in with the rest and then i realized if i do that i'll never be able to enjoy a meal.
thanks!
thanks!
