Crockpot Chili Recipe

There’s nothing like a nice bowl of warm chili during the cold winter months. The chili recipe I have for you today is thick and meaty. So great with some avocado, cilantro and tortilla chips for dipping. If you are feeding a crowd, this is a great recipe to serve your guests. It’s sure to warm everyone right up.A little note….be careful about the chorizo you choose, some can be quite spicy. You can always substitute sausage if you want to go completely mild 🙂 Enjoy!

How To Serve Chili

Serve chili by itself in a cup or bowl topping with your favorite taco style toppings such as avocado, cilantro, sour cream, tomatoes, onion, bacon, salsa, jalapeños to name a few. Freshly baked popovers are also great with chili! Store leftover chili in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
