1	lg	Onion -- peeled & diced
2		Cloves Garlic -- peeled &
		Minced
1	c	Diced Celery
1	md	Green Pepper -- seeded and

1	md	Red Pepper -- seeded and

1	lb	Turkey Breast -- ground
8	oz	Tomato Sauce
2	c	Water
2	oz	Chiles -- Pasillas
1	tb	Paprika
1	tb	Chili Powder
3/4	ts	Dried Oregano
3/4	ts	Ground Cumin
16	oz	Kidney Beans -- Canned

		Cheese

Heat oil in a 4-6 quart Dutch oven over medium-high heat. When oil is sizzling, add onion, garlic and celery. Stir until onion and celery are just tender. Crumble in ground turkey and cook, stirring and breaking up the meat with a large kitchen spoon, until turkey lightly browns. Stir in red and green bell pepper and continue cooking 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in tomato sauce, water, dried chilies, paprika, chili powder, oregano, and cumin. Bring to a full boil, then reduce heat to simmer and cook, covered, about 20 minutes. The mixture should be somewhat liquid; if it seems dry, add just enough liquid (water or stock) to prevent scorching. Stir in beans. Cook with cover removed an additional 20 to 30 minutes until mixture is fairly thick.
