EASY & MILD CROCKPOT CHILI
Kid-Friendly Chili Recipe...no hunks of tomatos, onions, or peppers. Just a smooth belly-warming bowl of Chili. If you are looking for an "authentic" chili recipe then this is probably no the one for you. However, if you are looking for an easy recipe (that you probably have the ingrediants on hand) you can throw in the crockpot and that your picky eater will actually eat..look no further. This is my fav chili recipe that I modified from an old Eastern Star recipe book called Homespun Cooking. Posting it here for safe keeping. Serve with Corn Chips or Corn Bread for a satisfying, belly-warming meal. :)

Steps:
- Brown ground beef with onion powder & garlic.
- Place browned meat & the remaining ingredients (except beans) into the crockpot.
- Stir to ensure all ingredients are incorporated (mixed well).
- Cook on Low 6-10 Hours.
- Add Beans to the Chili 1/2-1 hour before the end of cooking (long enough to heat them through).
- Special Note: I have added the complete 6oz can of tomato paste (so as not to waste it) with no issues. You may want to add a bit more water if you do use the whole can. Also, I have used just kidney beans or just pintos or both (for a realy hearty chili). This is one of those recipes you can play around with and have little ill-effects.
- Also, I like to top ours with fresh grated cheddar cheese & a dollip of sour cream immediately before serving.
BEEF AND BEER CHILI, EASY CROCKPOT RECIPE
Recipe from the WebMD Weight Loss Clinic. They say "chili is one of America's favorite lunch or dinner entrees -- especially during the winter months. Served with cornbread, it really hits the spot. I happen to be a "hot" spice lightweight, so you'll need to add extra chili powder, cayenne pepper, or jalapeño if you want a hotter chili." I haven't made this but I want it in my cookbook so I'm posting it to share.

- Cook the chili on low heat: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop. You can cook the chili for as little as 4 hours or as long as 8 hours.
- Serve the chili with your favorite toppings: Common toppings include cheese, sour cream, onions, and cilantro. You can also serve the chili with cornbread or crackers.
