Killer beans with sausage

This is one I threw together one day with ingredients I just happened to have on hand. Yeah, that is pretty much how I cook; what do we have in the fridge and pantry today?

Well, it was such a big hit that I decided to write the recipe down, and have made it a couple of times since. I like to make a big batch in hopes there will be enough leftover for lunch and dinner tomorrow. Sometimes that actually works out.

Hearty slow cooker chicken chili

This is a very easy, tasty meal that can easily serve 6 or more people. There are four of us, so we always have leftovers. I like to have Greek yogurt, Sriracha and habanero sauce on hand for doctoring up individual servings. Tortilla chips are great with it too. Adjust the seasonings for desired heat level. The chicken can be thrown into the slow cooker fresh or frozen.
