Tasty Chili

I had the day off yesterday, so I made chili. I use the Betty Crocker recipe (http://www.bettycrocker.com/Recipes/Recipe.aspx?recipeId=35323), but I do a few things differently.

I use lean ground turkey.
I use one can of whole tomatoes plus a half can of crushed tomatoes.
This time, I used black beans. I bought the pre-seasoned beans by accident, and they were great!
I add a small can of undrained diced or chopped chilis.
This time, I added one yellow pepper (chopped)
I also added some adobo seasoning (from Penzy's), because I was out of oregano (and it contained oregano).

I also made corn bread. I used the recipe on the corn meal container, which called for flour, sugar, baking powder, cornmeal, 1/4 cup of oil, and two eggwhites. It was good, but sponge-like. I don't know if I would use that recipe again, but it wasn't bad!
