    I love doing chili in a slow cooker, throw everything together in the morning and put it on low, it’ll be ready by dinner. Chili is one of those things that’s better the longer it cooks, and better the next day. A few other ingredients that I love to add:

    • chipotles in adobo sauce (get rid of the seeds if you want less heat, but these will make it spicier regardless)
    • chocolate (I just throw in some chocolate chips, a little sugar doesn’t hurt things)
    • MSG (great way to add some more umami, especially if you’re going vegan. Just be careful not to overdo it)
