Yummy Crock Pot Chili

  • Minutes to Prepare:
  • Number of Servings: 8
Ingredients
1 medium onion, chopped 2-3 cloves of garlic, or equivalent amount of granulated garlic 1 medium bell pepper, chopped1-2 hot peppers (to taste), chopped 3 cans of beans (or you can use the equivalent amount of the dried versions, but I am lazy and use canned beans) 1 can of whole kernal corn 2 cans of diced tomatoes (the medium sized ones, same size as the beans), one drained, the other with liquid 1.5 tablespoon of chili powder 2 teaspoons of cumin 2 teaspoons of cayenne pepper (or more, depending how spicy you like it) 1-2 sun-dried tomatoes, chopped 1 lb browned ground beef Shredded cheese for topping if you like that
Directions
Saute the onion and garlic in a pan until the onion is translucent.
Add the bell pepper, and hot peppers and saute for a couple more minutes. Add to slow cooker.
Add beans, corn, meat and tomatoes to the slow cooker. Stir in chili powder, cumin, cayenne pepper, and sun-dried tomatoes. It might seem
like there is not enough liquid, but as it cooks, it will release more liquid.
Slow cook on low for at least 5-6 hours, more if you can.

Notes:
This chili tastes best the second day after cooking is complete because the flavours will melt together.
I used kidney beans, cannelini, and pinto beans, but you can use whichever ones you like.
