Sunday Morning Crockpot Chili

(Saturday evening prep)

  • 1.5lb ground beef, browned
  • 1 large onion, sauteed
  • half a red pepper
  • half a green pepper
  • 2 cans of Trader Joe’s fire-roasted tomatoes w/ green chiles
  • half a thing of mushrooms, sliced
  • some diced eggplant, roasted
  • about a cup of pureed pumpkin, allegedly for thickening?
  • three smushed cloves of garlic
  • cumin
  • chili powder
  • paprika
  • oregano
  • garlic powder
  • salt
  • pepper
  • honey
  • 1 tbsp of cocoa powder, as instructed by the same recipe that said pumpkin puree

I think that’s everything. In the crockpot, in the fridge, ready to be started tomorrow morning before I leave for tutoring (with the addition of a cup or two of beef broth, if it will fit). Expecting 8 hours or so. (Chopped fresh parsley and cilantro will be added right near the end.)
