Beer? Lots of people put beer in their chili; I thought I’d try it, too, instead of my ubiquitous red wine and LOVED it! While the ingredient list for my chili appears a tad long, give it a try. There are a variety of veggies hidden in the pot (the kids won’t notice), but mostly it’s tossing in spoonfuls of ground spices and opening a few cans. The single jalapeno adds flavor only, not a lot of heat. Chop all the veg in the food processor to cut time. Once you’ve put a lid on the slow cooker, you have nothing to do but enjoy the day!

COOK’S NOTE: The idea of using Dijon mustard, dill weed, and lemon juice in chili comes from the legendary SILVER PALATE COOKBOOKS’s Chili for a Crowd, pp 130-131. While the spices there are a bit much for me, I have for years added these three odd ingredients to my pot with great happiness and success. Copyright Alyce Morgan, 2019. All rights reserved.
