Ingredients
- 2 2 28-ounce cans of whole tomatoes and their juice
- 3 3 stalks celery diced
- 2 2 bell peppers diced
- 2 2 medium carrots diced
- 1 1 large onion diced
- 4 4 cloves garlic finely minced
- 1-2 1-2 tablespoons chili powder more will be spicier

- 1 1 tablespoon coconut sugar can sub brown sugar
- 1 1 teaspoon EACH: oregano and sea salt
- A pinch of chili flakes optional
- 2 2 15-ounce cans of beans drained and rinsed - we like to use red kidney beans
- 2 2 cups frozen corn you could use fresh but frozen is easy and works great
- Optional toppings: sour cream, cheddar, green onions, diced avocado, cilantro
Instructions
- Empty the cans of tomatoes into your slow cooker and use a potato masher to roughly chop them up.
- Add the celery, peppers, carrots, onion, garlic, chili powder, cumin, coconut sugar, oregano, salt, and chili flakes and stir well. Cover and turn on your slow cooker for 5-6 hours on high or 8-10 hours on low.
- Stir in the beans and corn and let them sit for 10 minutes to warm through. Season to taste with sea salt.
- Serve the slow cooker vegetarian chili in a bowl with any or all of the optional toppings.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- You can put the beans and corn in at the beginning, but both will be very soft by the end of cooking. The chili tastes best if they're added at the end and allowed to warm through.
