Guest blogger Jessica (Denver, CO) from Beauty Marks again. This one was too easy for words and, most importantly, was a HUGE crowd-pleaser. You can spice it up with chili powder or jalapeños if you’d like, but I kept it mild for the timid in my house.

Sauté onion and pepper in olive oil till soft. Add garlic powder and stir. Add turkey and sauté till cooked through and somewhat browned. Dump into slow cooker; add remaining ingredients. Cook on low for 4-6 hours.
