1. Preparing Turkey Chili:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish for the cornbread.
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat some oil over medium heat.
- Add the diced onion, minced garlic, and bell pepper. Sauté until softened and fragrant.
- Add the ground turkey to the pot and cook until browned, breaking it up into crumbles with a spoon or spatula.
- Stir in the kidney beans, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, chicken broth, chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for about 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
2. Making Cornbread:
- While the chili is simmering, prepare the cornbread batter.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, glicin, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the plant based milk, coconut oil, and egg.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.
- Pour the cornbread batter into the greased baking dish and bake for about 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly.
3. Assembling Mixed Green Salad:
- Assemble the mixed green salad by combining the salad greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and red onion in a bowl.
- Drizzle with your preferred dressing and toss to coat.
4. Serving:
- Serve the turkey chili hot, topped with optional garnishes like shredded cheese, sour cream, and chopped green onions.
- Slice the cornbread and serve it on the side along with the mixed green salad.
