Taco Black Bean Chili is a hot and spicy chili you will adore! This one uses lean ground beef, diced tomatoes with green chilies, tomato paste, onions, bell peppers, kidney beans and black beans. It also uses some of my Homemade Taco Seasoning which flavors everything so wonderfully.

Back in August, the brother of our pastor’s wife was going through extensive testing. She was up visiting him all day at the hospital so I offered to bring a meal. As it happened, the night before we had a Taco Night at our church and our Sunday school class was supposed to bring seasoned taco meat.

I cooked up about ten pounds of meat but ended up with about half of it left over. I was wondering how I was going to use up all this extra taco meat, so I decided to use it in a recipe for this chili. I served it with Buttermilk Cornbread and Nutella Muffins. They loved everything.

If you love hot and spicy chili then you’ve got to give Taco Black Bean Chili a try. It’s great served with cheese, sour cream, fresh cilantro or even green onions. Or you can live dangerously and add some sliced fresh jalapeno peppers! Dip some cornbread into the chili and you have comfort food at its finest.

Taco Black Bean Chili is utterly scrumptious! This amazing and spicy chili is made in the slow cooker. Ground beef is seasoned with homemade taco seasoning and then added with kidney and black beans, tomatoes with diced chilies, onions, garlic and bell peppers. Fabulous for cool, autumn nights. It's hearty, filling, mouthwatering and so, so satisfying. This recipe is gluten free.
