Lentil Crock-Pot chili

I always love to make a pot of chili in the Fall....And I usually have all of the ingredients on hand to make it....except for the beef sometimes... good part about making it with lentils is I would always have on hand to make this in a pinch.....Now if you like you could also add Quinoa along with the lentils....you could also add green or red pepper if you choose to....and feel free to season as you like if you have a favorite chili recipe....here is what I did.... Enjoy!!

Ingredients

1 medium onion diced
3 carrots finely diced
2 cloves garlic minced
Green or red pepper diced(optional)
Salt and pepper

Saute the onion, carrot till soft...add garlic, salt and pepper
Add to preheated to high Crock-Pot


Then add the rest of the ingredients



1 can corn
1can black beans
2 cans kidney beans
1 can petite diced tomatoes
1 1/2 cups of lentils ( if you would like to add Quinoa add 1 cup lentils and 1/2 cup of Quinoa)
5 cups chicken broth
1 Tablespoon of cumin
3  Tablespoons of chili powder
Salt and pepper to taste
