    Variations

    • During the last hour of cooking add in shredded pre-cooked chicken.
    • If you prefer a little beefy flavor, add in beef fat instead of meat. The Better than Bouillon Beef base works great.
    • If you want a super hot chili then add more chili sauce or a few inches of cayenne powder.
    • Replace the kidney beans with spicy chili beans.

    Instructions

    The wonderful thing about slow cooker or crockpot chili is you just toss in the ingredients, cover, and cook on low for at least 5 hours for the best flavor.

    veggie chili ingredients in 3 quart crockpot.

    I love my 3 quart Crockpot by Magnolia Home from Target. It really is the perfect size for cooking for two with a little leftover for lunch the next day.

    Can I make this on the Stovetop?

    Yes! If you don't have the time and want a quick meal then you can also make this on the stovetop in less than an hour.

    • In a dutch oven or heavy bottom pan, saute the onion and peppers.
    • Add the remaining ingredient and cook on low for 45-60 minutes or until the vegetables are tender. Stir occasionally.

    Cooking scrumptious small batch recipes for one and sometimes for two are created in my small 1960’s kitchen. I learned to cook Shepherds Pie in England and Classic Marinara while living in Italy. Born in Southern California and raised in the Midwest, my cooking represents the best of both regions with an added touch of Southern hospitality.
