You don’t need a lot of ingredients for this gluten-free chili – it’s no-fuss meals here!
Here’s what you’ll need to make this Gluten-Free Slow Cooker Chili:
- Ground Beef
- Sweet onion
- Celery
- Red pepper
- Kidney beans
- San Marzano or plum tomatoes
- Corn – canned or frozen kernels
- Spices – chili powder, cumin, paprika, oregano, salt
- Cooked basmati rice for serving (optional – this is is how I love to eat it, on rice)
- For toppings – lime wedges, shredded cheddar cheese, sour cream
Can you freeze this slower cooker chili?
Yep! This chili recipe will freeze for up to 3 months in an air tight container. Defrost overnight and re-heat in the microwave. Or you can place the frozen chili right into the crock pot and re-heat it.
Can I use ground turkey instead of ground beef?
Sure thing! Ground turkey will just fine; you can replace the ground beef with ground turkey 1 for 1.
I don’t have the “San Marzano” or plum tomatoes. What can I use instead?
That’s okay. You can use canned diced tomatoes instead. It will turn out very similar.
Hope you love this easy crock pot gluten-free chili recipe!
