2 lb lean (at least 80%) ground beef 1 large onion, chopped (1 cup) 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped 1 can (28 oz) Muir Glen™ organic diced tomatoes 1 can (16 oz) chili beans in sauce, undrained 1 can (15 oz) Muir Glen™ organic tomato sauce 2 tablespoons chili powder 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon pepper
In 12-inch skillet, cook beef and onion over medium heat 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until beef is brown; drain.
In 4- to 5-quart slow cooker, mix beef mixture and remaining ingredients.
Cover and cook on Low heat setting 6 to 8 hours.
Expert Tips
Switch up the ground meat, using a combo of ground beef with some pork or bison for an even richer flavor, or lighten up by using ground chicken or turkey.
Not all chili powders are equal—the most basic, consistent blend is made up of ground mild red chiles, garlic, oregano, and cumin. But if you’re more adventurous look for a smoky chipotle chili blend that has more kick; or stir in a pinch of ground cinnamon or allspice for a newer, more modern edge.
Have a larger slow cooker? Double this up for a crowd and set out dishes of shredded pepper Jack cheese, broken yellow & blue corn tortilla chips, and a big bowl of pico de gallo (a quick, fresh salsa of tomato, white onion, fresh jalapeno, cilantro leaves, and lime juice) to spoon into each bowl.
