Introduction

My basic Chili recipe. Add too or take away from at will. I make chili when I need to clear out my fridge of veggies, so it's always a catch-all of beans, veggies and spices. My basic Chili recipe.

Tips

Add too or take away from this recipe at will. I make chili when I need to clear out my fridge of veggies, so it's always a catch-all of beans, veggies and spices. Some good things to add: Chipotle adobo, yams, spinach, zuccini... get creative!


Directions

Saute meat, with salt and pepper and spices, then add to slowcooker
dice and saute veggies with salt, pepper, and spices, then add to slowcooker
add canned tomatoes, beans, creamed corn, to slowcooker. Add spices and salt and pepper to taste (my measurements are vague depending on how spicy you like your chili, I usually add more than I've listed) Cook on high for 2 hours. You can eat it after 2 hours on high, or continue to simmer on low for a while. The longer it cooks the better. Makes lots of leftovers. I like to add spinach when reheating for extra veggie goodness
