Cincinnati Turkey Chili

This was a big hit at home, and quite yummy! From Cooking light, so only 400 calories per serving (not too terrible, I guess).

Pam
8 oz. ground turkey
1 1/2 cups chopped onion
1 cup chopped green bell pepper
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon chili powder
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 tsp. ground cumin
1 tsp. oregano
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/8 tsp. allspice
1/2 cup fat free chicken broth
15 oz. kidney beans (drained)
14.5 oz. diced tomatoes (un-drained)
2 1/2 tablespoons of chopped semisweet chocolate (I used the mini chocolate chips)
1/4 tsp. salt
cheddar cheese to top
Spaghetti (cooked and set aside)

Cook turkey until crumbly. Add in 1 c. of onion, bell pepper, garlic and saute. stir in chili powder, tomato paste, cumin, oregano, cinnamon, and allspice. Add chicken broth, beans and tomatoes and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 20 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in chocolate and salt. Serve over spaghetti and top with cheese and remaining onion (we didn't top with the onion).
