Qty. Measurement Description
One 15-ounce can diced tomatoes, undrained
1 small onion, quartered
2 cloves garlic
1/4 teaspoon Cajun seasoning

3 cups drained, canned pinto beans
6 cups low-sodium turkey or chicken stock
1 1/2 cups cooked, diced turkey

Preparation Cook: 20 minutes

  1. In a food processor, combine the tomatoes, onion, garlic and Cajun seasonings. Process until smooth.
