From my friend Louise Brinkman:

• 1 lb ground turkey, browned
• ½ medium onion, chopped
• 2 stalks celery, chopped
• 1 green pepper, chopped
• 1 large carrot, chopped
• 1 medium zucchini, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 28 oz. can diced tomatoes
• 14 oz. can diced tomatoes with jalapenos
• 15 oz. can pinto beans, rinsed and drained
• 15 oz. can light red kidney beans, rinsed and drained
• 1 tsp. cumin
• 1 tsp. salt
• 1 tsp. paprika
• 1 tsp. oregano
• ¼ cup sugar

1. Heat oil in large, heavy pan. Sauté onion, celery, green pepper and carrot until wilted.  Add zucchini and garlic.  Add tomatoes, pinto beans, and kidney beans.  Add browned ground turkey and all seasoning.
2. Simmer about 1½ hours.
3. I usually skip the zucchini and add more carrots and celery.
