Creamy Italian Sausage Chili
This Creamy Italian Sausage Chili is a recipe I created for a church chili cook-off. I wanted to make my own chili mostly because I hate onions (I know, right?) and most chili recipes (including a few on our site!) have lots of onions. I figured if I was going to attend the chili cook-off party I might as well have something there I wanted to eat, so I played around with ingredients until I came up with this recipe, and to my surprise it ended up winning first place! So here it is, my award winning, onion-less chili recipe. Enjoy!
Chili for Chilly Nights
This creamy chili is perfect for fall. We make it up for nights when we are out at football games or going to a corn maze or any night we might be a little chilled and need some warming up. It’s a cinch to throw all the ingredients in the slow cooker and let the spices and flavors cook in during the day so it is ready to go at dinner time. It is a little spicy, so you can decrease some of the spices to mild it down but we like it with a little bit of heat.
