This my chili recipe that I always make in the crock pot:

2 cans kidney beans
1 can pinto beans
1 small can (4.5 oz) tomato paste
1 can (8 oz) tomato sauce
1 can (8 oz) diced tomatoes
1 can (8oz) crushed tomatoes
1 can chopped green chilies
Some apple juice (just a few splashes at the beginning)
2 tsp chili powder
2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp crushed red pepper
1 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp salt
Mix everything in the crockpot and cook on low for several hours. I usually cook it all day.
I like to use this chili recipe from Sandra Lee Semi Home Made. Its super easy and really good. I like to add a can of frozen corn in at the end too.
Ingredients
