• 2 tablespoons tomato paste

Instructions

1. Heat oil in a large heavy bottom pot over medium-high heat. Add onion, bell pepper and celery; cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened, 10 to 12 minutes.
2. Add ground turkey, cook, stirring often, until the turkey is crumbled and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Stir in tomato paste, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder and onion powder; cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant and well combined, about 1 minute. Stir in broth, tomato sauce, kidney beans, pink (or pinto) beans, diced tomatoes with juices, and salt. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer, stirring occasionally, until the flavors meld, about 15 minutes.
3. Top each with a dollop of yogurt and serve with chips.
