Thick and Hearty Vegetarian Slow Cooker Chili Recipe. Perfect for crisp fall evenings. No prep time needed, just throw the ingredients in you slow cooker and cook on low for 5 hours. So easy!!

I’m loving that fall is finally here. It is arguably the best season. The leaves are creating a colorful palette in my backyard, the morning air is crisp and refreshing and I’m starting to CRAVE soups, stews and chili. This is where my handy dandy slow cooker comes into play. I can make a plethora of hearty fall dishes in that lovely piece of kitchen awesomeness.

One such enticing dish is this tasty vegetarian slow cooker quinoa chili. Packed full of super foods and flavors, this chili is the epitome of fall comfort food. You know from my Spanish Quinoa Recipe, Quinoa Pizza Bites,  Quinoa and Egg Breakfast Muffins and Chicken, Bacon, Broccoli and Quinoa Skillet that I’m slightly obsessed with quinoa. Since quinoa is packed full of fiber, protein and key nutrients, it seemed like a perfect, hearty replacement for meat in my favorite slow cooker chili recipe.

After a quick trip to Walmart to grab all my ingredients, including Hunt’s All Natural Diced Tomatoes and Tomato Sauce, I was ready to slave over my chili recipe. Just kidding. No effort other than opening cans involved in this super easy recipe. I just put all my ingredients in the slow cooker, turned it on low and let it slowly cook it’s way to perfection.

One of the things I love about this recipe is how easy it is to double the recipe and make an extra batch to freeze for an even quicker dinner option next time you get really busy.

    This looks amazing Jordyn! It's so perfect for fall and looks so hearty too! I can't wait to make this and perhaps add extra sweet potato to it too! Happy FF and have a great weekend!

    Fall is my favorite time of year for soups and chilis! It's so interesting to see how the quinoa reacts in the slow cooker. It seems to maintain its shape pretty well. The only time I've mixed soup with quinoa was in a much thinner broth. (It's more of a springtime soup.) And, for that recipe it's helpful to add the quinoa at the end, so that it doesn't swell too much. This looks like such a unique dish! Thank you so much for brining this tasty chili to the fiesta. It seems to have a depth of flavor. And, I hope you have a marvelous weekend. :D Kaila (GF Life 24/7) recently posted...DIY Vampire Cookies for Halloween (GF, DF)My Profile
