I have been trying to incorporate more veggies into my diet so I thought having an abundance of veggie chili in the fridge would help!
I chopped up a bunch of veggies which only took a few minutes and then I literally threw everything into the crock-pot! I had it as a main meal, a side dish, and for lunch I added in chicken for extra protein! You can definitely swap in different veggies too. I made this recipe mild but it would be great with some chopped up jalapenos or a few splashes of hot sauce!

2 tsp cumin
2 tbsp chili powder

½ teaspoon salt
½ tsp pepper
1 tsp garlic powder
1 can beans (your choice I used chickpeas)

2 tablespoons canola oil or olive oil
Toppings: Cheddar Cheese, jalapenos, avocado, salsa

A little cheddar cheese and avocado on top was a must for me!
