TIPS

I buy part of a cow every year, so my meat is frozen and I don't usually think ahead to thaw it. I like to cook frozen ground beef and onion on high in a slow cooker for 1 1/2 hours, stirring and breaking up after 1 hour. Drain fat, add remaining ingredients and continue to heat on high, or low in slow cooker until heated through.

For food safety, frozen meat should only be cooked in the slow cooker on high.

I generally use canned diced, unsalted tomatoes.

You can use any bean that you prefer. Sometimes, I just throw together the remaining beans that I have in my fridge, chickpeas, lentils, kidney beans, black beans etc. will all taste delicious.
