This looks like it's the perfect weather for sharing! I found posted here: by e-Mom at Susannah's {Kitchen}, a retro-chic vintage apron i-store. If you scroll down on the right at the blogs I follow you'll find her! While you're at her site - check out those awesome apron's!

Meatballs instead of ground beef!

1 (16) oz can Light red kidney beans, drained
1 (16) oz can of Dark kidney beans, drained
1 (14) oz can stewed tomatoes, cut up
2 (6) oz cans of tomato paste
1 (14) oz can beef broth
2 lbs frozen ground beef meatballs
1 large onion, chopped
1 green pepper, chopped
1 red pepper, chopped
2 tablespoons minced garlic
3 tablespoons chili powder
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon cumin
Salt to taste

Put all ingredients into a crockpot and set on high for the first hour; then reduce heat to low and continue to cook for 5 hours. (Substitute turkey meatballs for beef if desired.) Garnish with a dollop of sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped green onions. Buttered cornbread muffins alongside will turn this easy chili recipe into a man-pleasing autumn feast.

Did you know? Dairy products like sour cream, cheese, and milk work better than liquids like water to cool the heat from spicey Mexican foods?
