Variations & Tips

For a vegetarian version, you can replace the ground beef with a plant-based meat substitute or additional beans and vegetables. If you prefer a spicier chili, add a diced jalapeno or a splash of hot sauce to the slow cooker. Alternatively, you can use chicken or turkey instead of beef for a lighter option. You can also experiment with different cheese varieties such as Monterey Jack or Pepper Jack to switch up the flavors. Lastly, consider adding some corn kernels or bell peppers for extra texture and nutrition.
