Muir Glen tomatoes are my favorite brand -- this is a recipe that I found on their website. The original recipe calls for 2 T of unsweetened baking cocoa, but my family is not big on chocolate flavor in savory dishes so feel free to use the entire amount. A very easy dinner for a busy night.

I found this chili to be a bit bland. I think I'll add more spices next time.

This chili was a bit too spicy for me, but I still enjoyed it. I think next time I'll use less chili powder.

I made this chili in my slow cooker, and it turned out great! I just threw all the ingredients in the slow cooker in the morning, and dinner was ready when I got home from work.
