Crockpot Veggie Chili September 8, 2016 0 Comments » Scroll down to watch the video. Even though it’s going to hit 91 degrees here in New Jersey today, I’ve still got ‘fall-fever’. The kids are back in school, soccer starts on Saturday, my grocery store is brimming with apples, pears, and winter squash, AND I just can’t stop thinking about pumpkins. But with the fall comes busy schedules, which is why I like to pull out my slow cooker this time of the year.  It’s an easy and guaranteed way to ensure that my family has a healthy (and delicious) dinner, even on the busiest of days. For this recipe all you do is load up your crockpot with the ingredients (I recommend at least a 6-quart slow cooker, I use this one), set it, and forget it!! When you walk in your house at the end of the day, you will be greeted by a kitchen that embraces you with a warm and delicious aroma.  Then all you have to do is pull out your favorite chili topping and enjoy. Oh!  And I promise, the chili is hearty and satisfying enough to satisfy both vegans and meat-eaters alike.

If you do not like spicy chili, be sure to remove the seeds from the chipotle peppers before chopping them. If you don’t like chickpeas, feel free to sub in any type of bean you prefer (kidney or pinto would be great options).
