This chili makes a big pot on purpose — it reheats well, and the flavor only gets better after a day in the fridge.

Leaning on low-sodium beans, no-salt-added tomatoes, and low-sodium broth keeps this chili well suited to a DASH-style way of eating, while chili powder, cumin, and smoked paprika do the flavor work that salt usually gets credit for. Lean ground turkey keeps things lighter than a beef-based chili without sacrificing much heartiness, especially with two kinds of beans in the mix.

Let it simmer uncovered for the full 25 to 30 minutes so it thickens properly — top with avocado or a little fresh cilantro if you have it on hand.
