Veggie Chili

I try to fill up with veggies as often as possible. This simple crock pot chili is literally bursting with vegetables.

Ingredients:

1 zucchini sliced and quartered

1 yellow squash sliced and quartered

1 bell pepper diced

1/2 sweet onion diced

2 garlic cloves minced

1 can tomatoes with chilies

1 can Mexican corn with peppers (drained)

1 can black beans rinsed and drained

1 can pinto beans in chili sauce

28 ounces tomato sauce

1 tablespoon chili powder

Optional: shredded cheese or cheese cubes, Tostito chips, plain nonfat Greek yogurt

Directions:

1. Spray a crock pot with olive oil spray.
2. Add all ingredients and stir to combine.
3. Cook on low for 8 hours.
4. Top with desired toppings
5. My favorite combo is a handful of pepper jack and cheddar cheese cubes, dollop of Greek yogurt, and topped with crushed Tostitos.
