easy and delicious crockpot chili

With the weather getting cooler now I’ve been digging out some of my hearty comfort food recipes. This easy and delicious crockpot chili fits that bill. It’s quick and easy to throw together, serves up plenty for a crowd and reheats well for those who have leftovers. And it doesn’t contain any crazy ingredients that turn off picky eaters.

I’ve been making chili for years but it wasn’t until a couple of years ago that I changed to the current way we prefer it. I had always used tomato sauce as the base for our chili. I’d add beans and ground hamburger and call it a day. Then we tried chili with a tomato juice base and we were hooked.

My daughters are a difficult crowd to please at supper time. If one likes what I’m making the other one says she hates it and vice versa. Every. Single. Night. And I am not exaggerating. It has made dinner at my house so difficult because there are only a few meals they both agree on. Chili is not one of those even though they will both eat it if I beg them. This recipe seems to be the one they’re okay with so I try not to mess with it too much. You can easily substitute ground chicken for the ground beef though if you’re looking to lighten it up. I prefer the ground chicken to save WW points but if I want to increase the chance of the girls eating it I use the ground hamburger.

As far as spices go I usually don’t measure, I kinda just sprinkle some over the top and stir it in. Use your best judgment as to how much flavor you want to incorporate into your dish. My kids aren’t real big on spicy chili so if you are, feel free to add crushed red pepper flakes or ground cayenne pepper. This chili goes great with a dollop of sour cream and topped with shredded cheddar cheese. I prefer to eat it with a lightly buttered kaiser roll or simple cornbread muffin.

Say hello to my little peep. Okay, he's not real Say hello to my little peep.  Okay, he's not real but isn't he adorable?  I whipped him up in less than 15 minutes.  Super easy and super cute!!  You'll need:
Yarn
Orange felt
Black felt, beads or giggly eye
Pipe cleaner
Glue
Scissors
Wire cutter (optional)  Wrap yarn around 4 fingers fifty - sixty times.  Carefully slide yarn off your fingers and gather another piece around the middle.  Pull it tight and tie a knot.  Cut the loops carefully then trim the puff until the ball is a nice uniform shape. (This was the most time consuming part.) Now wrap more yarn around 2 fingers fifty - sixty times and do the same as you did with the first ball.  This smaller one will be the head.  Glue the head to the body.  Cut a small beak (triangle) from the orange felt and glue it to the head.  Either cut two small circles for the eyes from the black felt or use beads/giggly eyes.  Glue those to the head above the beak.  Bend your pipe cleaner in half then cut it.  Each side will be one leg and foot.  Starting at one end of the pipe cleaner start bending about 1/4 - 1/2 an inch in and then back out again to form three toes then wrap the long part up through the middle of the toes to finish the leg.  Put a dab of glue on the ends and place it up into the underside of the body.  Allow glue to set and then arrange feet and toes so your peep can stand.  Now give him a name.  Just kidding!  Though I won't judge you if you do. 😉

💛 I love seeing my daffodils each spring. I do 💛 I love seeing my daffodils each spring.  I don't have too much luck with bulbs around here partly because of the squirrels and other animals digging them up and my heavy clay soil.  Still these seem to like their spot and that makes me happy.  Can't wait for the tulips to bloom next... 🌼🌷
