BLACK BEAN SLOW COOKER CHILI {LOW CARB}

This delicious black bean slow cooker chili comes together easily with just a few simple ingredients that are probably in your pantry and fridge already. The chili gets its homey flavor from slow cooking the vegetables with aromatic spices like cumin and oregano. I love this recipe because it’s so easily customizable. Add chopped zucchini, bell peppers, or sliced leeks if you’d like to amp up the vegetables. This chili is also delicious with the addition of chorizo. Perfect for game day parties and busy weeknight family dinners.
