Amount Ingredient
1 cup dry elbow macaroni
1 lb skinless turkey breast
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup seeded and chopped green bell pepper
2 tbl chili powder
1 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp salt
1 x (14 1/2 oz.) can diced tomatoes, with juice
1 x (8 oz.) can tomato sauce
1 x (4 1/2 oz.) can chopped mild green chilies
Instructions:
Instructions: Bring a pot of water to a boil. Cook the macaroni according to package directions; drain and keep warm. Spray a large nonstick skillet with nonstick spray. Add the turkey and cook until no longer pink, stirring with a wooden spoon to break up the meat. Stir in the onion, bell pepper, chili powder, cumin, and salt. Cook stirring occasionally, until the onion is tender, about 3 minutes. Add the tomatoes, tomato sauce, chilies, and water; simmer, uncovered 10 minutes. Add the macaroni and cheese stirring to combine.

Additional Notes: We tried ours with a poblano pepper and it was wonderful.

This could also be a make ahead dish, to warm up after you get home from work, also this goes great in those brown bag lunches at work.
