Slow Cooker Spicy Beef Chili for two

By á-25010

Traditionally, true chili is made with just vegetables, tomatoes and lots of cubed beef, but no beans. This recipe honors beef by really making it the centerpiece of the chili, while kicking the heat up a notch with minced jalapeno. Enjoy any leftovers the next day by adding a bit of shredded cheese to them and making stove top quesadillas in a skillet.

• 1 onion, chopped
