Heat 1 Tbsp of the oil in a large pan on medium high heat. Add in the potato, onion, pepper, celery and garlic and cook until they begin to soften, about 5 minutes.

Add in the spices and cook until the turkey is no longer pink and the spices are fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
Add in the fire roasted tomatoes, crushed tomatoes, beans, water, tomato paste, salt and pepper and stir until well combined. Then, bring to a boil.
Once boiling, stir in the bay leaves, turn the heat to medium low and cover the pan. Simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Once simmered, remove the bay leaves and stir in the parsley.
