30 ounces canned red kidney beans (2 15 oz. cans drained of liquid and rinsed. I use BPA-free cans & Organic)
28 ounces diced tomatoes (also use BPA-free cans & organic if you can find them)
16 ounces tomato sauce (also use BPA-free cans & organic if you can find them)

Directions

1

Brown ground beef with onion and garlic. (if using stew meat or buffalo meat only brown the meat, do not fully cook!).

Drain meat if necessary.
3

Combine meat/onion/garlic mixture with the remainder of the ingredients and put in slow cooker.
4

Cook on low for 8 to 10 hours.
5

Remove bay leaf prior to serving.
6

I use Frontier Co-op spices that I purchase at my local health food co-op. I find their spices are extremely fresh and their 90,000 hu cayeene is great for slow-cooking recipes!

If making this as a vegetarian chili, simply skip the meat and add more beans. I love to add black beans. Yum!

Serve over rice or eat as is.
