I love how simple it is. Can throw everything in a freezer bag and have a quick freezer meal later. We make this once a week during the cold weather months.

Pin This RecipeIt is officially chili weather in Alabama – brr. We usually do a traditional beef chili, but I saw this in my google reader and decided to give it a try. One word – amazing!
It is made in the crockpot – my favorite preparation method. This only took 5 minutes to throw together before work. You could even mix it up the night before and just turn the crockpot on before heading out the door. The chili was delicious! We both loved it. It was even great reheated for lunch the next day.

I made this last night, wasn't paying attention to the size of Rotel so I bought the big can, 24oz and used it all, and it still tasted delish. YUMMY. So excited to have the leftovers are lunch. Amazing recipe.

What is Rotel?
It's diced tomatoes and chilies. 🙂 If you can't find it, get one can of each (the green chilies should be a 2-3 oz can) good luck!
So good! It is a definitely a keeper recipe!
I loved the flavor, but it was very thick. Before I thinned it out I thought of how good it would taste in a Fritos or Tostitos scoop as an appetizer……
Look delish! Can't wait to try it. oureatinghabits – I'm in Canada as well, and you're right, I doubt we can get Ro-Tel here. All it is chopped tomtaoes with chili peppers or jalapenos. You can easily substitute diced tomatoes and your own chopped peppers. No problemo. 🙂
How well will this freeze? I like to make individual servings for lunch. Has anyone had any luck?
Making this right now. I didn't have Rotel and didn't want to run to the store so I just added diced tomatoes. It may not have all the spices the rotel does or the peppers, but I still think it will turn out wonderful.
Assuming I should use boneless, skinless chicken?
Yummy!! Made it this week and was told i could make it again! I added a can of White kidney beans also.
This looks great! How many does it serve?
It will serve about 4 people
Oh my goodness!! I made this the other day for myself and my-inlaws! It was SUPER EASY and such a hit! Thanks
How many servings would you say this is? I'm trying to calculate calories 😉
This recipe is currently cooking in my crock pot and it smells AMAZING! I made a few adjustments to my recipe. I used black beans and northern beans. I also added some cilantro and black pepper. I can't WAIT to try this tonight. 🙂
Made this tonight and it was *really* great, especially considering the minimal work needed.
We used low-fat cream cheese and everyone loved it — not too creamy or too ranch-y.
Love the recipe box integration!
I heard a couple of my locker room buddies talking about this today and immediately my mouth started watering..too bad I don't have time to run home and get this ready for tonight… looks like it's on the menu for Friday or Saturday though! YUM!
We had this tonight and it was great! It was more on the thicker side and we had it with tortilla chips. We thought this would be great next time spread on tostada shells with lettuce and sour cream. Can't wait to try that!
