Southern Mom Loves: Crockpot Southwest Chili Recipe

Crockpot Southwest Chili Recipe

Wednesday, September 2, 2015

This is one of my family's favorite chilly-weather recipes and it's so easy to prepare. This Crockpot Southwest Chili Recipe takes about 15 minutes to prep, but then you simply throw the ingredients into a crockpot and let it simmer for about 6 hours on its own. That's it! This Southwest-style chili can cook by itself while you work, run errands, or play with the kids.

Note: My family likes beef, but you can use any ground (and browned) meat that you like in this chili.
