Crockpot Black Bean Chicken Chili

This spicy crockpot black bean chicken chili is loaded with veggies and all that chili goodness with the convenience of crockpot cooking.

Soup and chili season is in full swing! With the daylight hours getting shorter and shorter, I break out my crockpot more often. Because who wants to spend those precious few daytime hours cooking, am I right?!

To prep this recipe, all you have to do is dice your yellow onion, finely chop your bell pepper and celery, and mince your garlic.

Add everything to the crockpot except for the jalapeno pepper and stir well to combine. Cook on low for 6-8 hours, or on high for 3-4 hours.

Once your cook time is up, remove the chicken, shred, and return to your crockpot.

Garnish your chicken chili with sliced jalapeno pepper. Top with sour cream, cheese, or sliced avocado, if desired. Enjoy!
