Preparation

In a large pot over medium heat saute the onion, garlic and ground turkey until turkey is browned.
Add tomatoes, pepper, cumin, chili powder, oregano, cinnamon, brown sugar and cayenne pepper.
Saute for 5 more minutes.
Add black beans, corn and chicken broth to the pot.
Puree cannellini beans in a blender or food processor.
Add puree to the pot.
Stir well and simmer for 10 minutes.
If the turkey mixture seems dry when browning, add a splash of olive oil.
The spice measurements are approximate.
If you want more or less heat, adjust the cayenne and the hot sauce.
If desired, garnish with sour cream, shredded cheese or green onions.
