Guiltless Turkey Taco Soup

1 lb. lean ground turkey
1 med. onion, diced
1 sm. bell pepper, diced (or 1/3 c. frozen diced bell pepper)
1 Tblsp. minced garlic
2 Tblsp taco seasoning
2 (15oz) cans black beans, rinsed & drained
1 (14.5oz) can rotel (or other brand diced tomatoes w/ green chilies), undrained
1 (15oz) can whole kernel corn, drained & rinsed
1 (8oz) can tomato sauce
salt & pepper to taste
2 c. turkey stock (I use homemade but use low sodium if you buy it)
1 to 1-1/2 c. water

In a preheated, dutch oven cook turkey meat, onions and bell pepper over medium heat until meat is no longer pink. Stir frequently to prevent sticking. Add in garlic, taco seasoning, beans, rotel, corn, stock and tomato sauce. Season with salt & pepper to your taste. Stir well. Add water if soup is too thick. Bring to a boil then reduce heat heat to low. Allow to simmer for about 30 minutes. Soup will reduce and thicken as it simmers.
