Three Bean Crock Pot Chili
Prep Time: 30 minutes
Cook Time 6-7 hours 

1 LB Ground beef
1 LB Ground Turkey
3 tsp minced garlic
1 14oz can kidney beans,drained
1 14oz can pinto beans, drained
1 14oz can black beans, drained
1 14oz can beef broth
1 14oz can diced tomatoes, drained
1 4oz can tomato paste
1 Medium white onion, diced
1 Medium green pepper, diced
1 Fresh jalapeno, diced and seeded
1 TBSP chili powder
1 TBSP oregano
2 TBSP ground cumin
1 TBSP olive oil(EVOO)

In a large fry pan over medium high heat combine ground beef, ground turkey and garlic until fully cooked and no pink is remaining in the meat. Drain and add the meat to your crock pot.

In the same fry pan heat the TBSP EVOO over medium high heat, add the onion, green pepper and jalapeno and cook stirring often until the onion begins to brown. Stir in chili powder, cumin and oregano. Add tomato paste and stir until well combined. Add to crock pot.

Add all three types of beans, diced tomatoes and beef broth, stir to combine ingredients. Cook on high 4-5 hours or low 6-7 hours. I prefer the low setting and I think it is worth the wait. Garnish with toppings, like onion, cheese, tomato and sour cream. Wine Pairing: Riesling, Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz or Malbec. Beer Pairing: Lager, Amber Ale or Porter.
