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.
And just let it cook for 7 to 9 hours.
Taste before serving and add more kosher salt, pepper, or any of the other spices if needed.
We topped Slow Cooker Vegetarian Chili with sour cream, cheese, and hot sauce 🙂
Crackers too for a nice crunch!
My meat loving husband even devoured this and gave it multiple compliments, so you KNOW it has to be amazing.
And leftovers are even better the next day!
