What wonderful fall weather. The crisp evenings. The leaves falling. The pumpkins. I love it all!
One of my favorite things about fall is the food. I can just smell the pumpkin spice lattes, hearty stews, and chili. Oh, the chili!
This recipe is my absolute FAVORITE chili recipe for two reasons.
one – it’s so simple & easy.
two – it’s yummy and classic.

You’ve totally made me crave chili now. Chili is so easy to make and it’s super easy to throw things in a slow cooker and forget about it until suppertime. I just need it to get cooler over here so I can get motivated to make it! :D
I love chili too! I’ve played around with a few recipes but this one I’ve tweaked and keep coming back too :) Tonight was the perfect night…it’s supposed to drop down to the 40′s tonight. Thanks for stopping by Renee!
