How to make Slow Cooker Vegetarian Chili

First we have some dicing to do, friends.

Dice an onion, a red pepper, two poblano peppers, and two jalapenos and add them to the Crock Pot.

Also some minced garlic.

Then add a can of corn, black beans that have been rinsed, and some spices.

I went with 3 tablespoons chili powder, 2 tablespoons paprika, a tablespoon of cumin, and plenty of kosher salt and pepper.

Plus some crushed red pepper flakes because we like things spicy.

Finally in goes a 28 ounce can of crushed tomatoes, vegetable broth, and an optional ingredient… green chiles.

It really doesn’t matter the order that you add your ingredients.

But give it a stir before setting the slow cooker on low.

Taste before serving and add more kosher salt, pepper, or any of the other spices if needed.
