Easy Slow Cooker Chili Recipe

on September 23, 2021 in Recipes 4

This is our favorite easy slow cooker chili recipe and since yesterday was the first day of Fall (and it actually felt like it here in NC) I thought it only fitting to make some to celebrate!

Healthy Slow Cooker Chili Recipe

Notes + Substitutions

  1. This recipe is so versatile and easy to make!
  2. Use quality organic ground turkey or grass-fed and preferably organic beef for the most healthy meat choice.
  3. Sub a diced sweet potato for the kidney beans if you want to go bean-less. Just throw it in there when you put everything else together and it will cook perfectly. And it doesn’t make the chili too sweet.
  4. The chili seasoning can be made homemade if you don’t want to use a packet.
  5. Add as much heat as you like!

My Preferred Ingredients

  1. Pink Himalayan sea salt
  2. Frank’s Hot Sauce
  3. Muir Glen (this is my favorite brand for all of the tomato ingredients)

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound organic ground turkey or grass fed ground beef, brown
  • 1 small red onion, diced
  • 1 1 can organic kidney beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 14.5 ounce can organic diced tomatoes
  • 1 14.5 ounce can water
  • 1 8 ounce can organic tomato sauce
  • 1 tablespoon organic tomato paste
  • 1 package chili seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt, himalayan pink preferred
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 tablespoon coconut palm sugar (optional)
  • A few dashes of hot sauce to taste (optional

Instructions
 

  • Brown meat with diced onions and drain. Add all ingredients into the crockpot. Set slow cooker on low for approximately 4-5 hours. Time will vary depending on the slow cooker but it should be get to bubbling. Spoon into bowls and top with sour cream, shredded cheese, green onions. Serve with tortilla chips or cornbread.
    **Optional: About 20 minutes before serving stir in the brown sugar. The brown sugar doesn’t make the chili sweet but it cuts the smoky/salty flavor. To make the chili spicy add a few dashes of hot sauce.
    **If you need it ready in a couple hours set crockpot to high and cook until bubbly and beans are tender.
