Crockpot Chili
In honor of the first DMV snowstorm of 2019, tonight’s meal calls for something warming and filling. Crockpot Chili it is! I don’t know about you but my morning was spent playing outside in the snow with the littles. My poor hands and feet, brrrr. Chili is the perfect meal to finish out our cold day outside! This chili is great for a snow day where you just want to snuggle up on the couch and watch movies (or playoff games) and let the crockpot do all the hard work for you. I can truly say that this chili is delicious, with hearty ground beef, that’s slightly spicy and tomatoey. Top it with a little cheddar cheese for a little cheesiness. The aroma that filled the house made our mouths water with anticipation. We couldn’t wait to dig right in!
