Slow-Cooker Hearty Beef Chili


Ingredients:
1-1/2 lb. lean ground beef
1 can (15 oz.) dark red kidney beans, drained, rinsed
1 can (15 oz.) light red kidney beans, drained, rinsed
1-1/2 cups mild salsa
1 can (16 oz.) no-salt added tomato sauce
2 Tbsp. chili powder
1 onion, chopped
1 cup frozen corn, thawed, drained
1 cup shredded cheese

Directions:
Brown meat; drain. Add to slow cooker with remaining ingredients except cheese; stir. Cover with lid.
Cook on LOW for 5 to 6 hours (or on HIGH for 3 to 4 hours).
Stir just before serving. Serve topped with the cheese.


This was my first attempt at making chili and I am pretty proud of myself! Next time I make it I think I will add a little more tomato sauce because it needed more liquid. While the corn was different, I don't think I'll add as much next time.
