Taisen's 5 bean chili instructions
- Open all cans of beans. Drain juices. Add to crock pot.
- Add in onion.
- Add seasonings. Chili powder, onion powder, taco seasoning. Mix well. Red and black pepper if using. (as you can see, I add a lot of spice because my family loves chili to be extra spicy) stir well.
- Add in the tomatoes and tomato sauce. Stir. Set crock pot on high for 4 to 6 hours. Stir every hour if your crock pot is like mine. Mine gets over hot so a lot of times I use medium heat longer..
- Before serving, shred the block cheese and dice onion as a topping. If making cornbread do this now or use butter bread..
- Serve with butter bread, cornbread or salad. Enjoy.
