Step Description
1 Saute ground beef and onion in a frying pan until browned and onions are translucent.
2 Transfer the cooked beef and onion mixture to a crockpot. Add the can of diced tomatoes, along with their juice.
3 Add the uncooked wild rice to the crockpot. Cover everything with water, approximately 4 cups. Stir in chili powder, salt, and pepper to taste. Set the crockpot on high and cook for 1 hour.
4 After the initial hour, reduce the crockpotโ€™s heat to low and continue cooking until the rice is tender, typically about 4 hours. Youโ€™ll know the rice is done when it splits and curls.
5 Once the rice is cooked, add the frozen vegetables to the chili. Allow them to heat through on low heat for approximately 30 minutes.
6 Serve your delicious Meat & Veggies Chili hot and enjoy the wholesome goodness with your loved ones!

Tips:

  • Feel free to customize your chili by adding your favorite vegetables or beans.
  • For a spicier kick, add some chopped jalapenos or a dash of hot sauce.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for longer shelf life.

Savor the robust flavors of this comforting chili, perfect for any occasion. Let its warmth and nourishment bring joy to your table! ๐Ÿฅฃ
