Texas Crock Pot Chili

Texas Chili... What is it? Well it could be any chili cooked in Texas or by a Texan but the consensus seems to be a beef chili with no beans. I will go with that...

I have been home alone for 6 weeks due to a family emergency so I'm "cooking for one". Plus I'm working 12 hour days. So I'm doing my cooking in chunks with left overs for heating up in the evening. I trying to avoid the "I'm hungry and have nothing at home so let's hit the drive-thru" syndrome. This all spells "Crock Pot" to me so this blog may look like a crockpot blog for a while.

Healthy Crockpot White Bean Chili Spiced Up

You could say a lot about this chili. You could call it healthy, low fat, and low glycemic. I'm will just call it excellent.

I have always loved white bean in soups or chili and slow cooker chili fits my current life style.  It is just the right thing. One of my favorite chilies uses pepper jack cheese and salsa for spicing. I want to control the spicing and get the cheese out of the recipe.

Kick Tail Taco Soup in a Crockpot

A fine slow cooker recipe for a winter or football weekend. Kick tail spicy with a ton of great taste. This is a thick soup, maybe more "taco chili" but since I used soup recipes to make it, I'll stick with soup.

Most recipes start with some burger and taco seasoning. I started with a modified version of my spicy taco meat. The main complaint about most taco soups appears to be the mild spices. I bumped it up and add a jalapeno. I added all the spices to the meat so it would retain some flavor and not have it all washed out in the soup. Excellent, just right.

Healthy Southwest Chicken Chili

I call this a dump recipe, because you dump it in and go do something else until it's done.

I'm home alone for a few days and will be working late so dinner is either drive-thru or left overs. I choose left overs and what's better to warm up then chili. We are starting a new diet and I'm going with a low glycemic diet and low fat. So some chicken, beans and lots of taste. Baked in a dutch oven for several hours for simplicity. The results, really nice.
