I was going to post this recipe but found it already here. I just made this chili, and my family loved it. I highly recommend this slow cooker recipe. I served it with the salsa cruda, cheddar cheese, avocado, and a dollop of sour cream on top and homemade corn muffins on the side. The toppings make this mild chili special. My toddler really liked this (without the salsa) over macaroni and topped with cheddar.
