Easy Crock-Pot Chili
3 cans of beans (any beans you like, I prefer Organic Black Beans, Red Kidney Beans, or Pinto Beans, but any beans will do) (NOT Baked Beans though)
1 can meat (can use beanless chili, organic shredded chicken, etc) - SKIP this if you want a Vegetarian chili.
1 can Organic diced roasted tomato (or Rotelle)
1 can organic tomato sauce (14 oz or larger is best, but not the HUGE can)
1 cup water (I use the tomato can for this, helps get all the sauce out)
2 tsp salt
1 tbsp crushed garlic - (or can use 2 tsp garlic powder)
1 tbsp cumin
1 tsp cayenne pepper or Chili Powder
Other ingredients can be added, depending on what you like in your chili:
1 large can mushrooms (optional)
1 can organic Corn (optional)
1 can diced green chiles
Directions:
Toss all ingredients into crock pot (do not bother draining the cans, just pour it all in there). Stir. Cook on medium heat for 6 hours (stirring every so often), or 8 hours low heat if you will be away from the house. Add more spice if you want it spicier.
Serve.
Optional Garnishes:
Avocado slices
Shredded cheese
Sour Cream (or plain Greek yogurt, kefir)
Bacon Bits
