This Healthy Beef Chili is packed with protein, fiber, minerals, antioxidants and more. I like to use 96% ground beef but you can make it with ground turkey as well.

Instructions
In a large skillet, brown the ground beef.
Drain off the fat (if any).
While the beef is cooking, turn the crockpot to low to start warming it up and start adding the remaining ingredients.
*See note for cooking it on stovetop.
Cover the slow-cooker with lid and let the chili simmer for 4 hours on low.
Serve warm with crackers or cornbread.
Notes
Stovetop instructions:
In a large pot, cook the beef as noted above.
Add the remaining of ingredients.
Simmer on very low heat for 2 hours or until all of the flavors have developed well. Make sure not to cook it on very strong heat since it'll dry it out too quickly.
Stir often so that it doesn't stick to the bottom.
