Savory Slow Cooker Chili

I'm always looking for simple chili recipes, especially during wintertime. This Savory Slow Cooker Chili is one of the best I've made it a while; super easy and loaded with flavor. I'll be making slow cooker recipe again in no time.

Notes

Tip: Please remember that liquids in slow cooker almost don’t evaporate, so the amount of liquids you put in slow cooker you will pretty much get at the end. So if you like watery chili just add a little bit more water.


For garnish (optional): cheddar cheese, cilantro leaves and pickled jalapeno pepper.
