My boys and husband love this homemade beef chili recipe with beans that I make in the slow cooker. Add some corn chips or Cheddar cheese and it is always a winner.
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced, or more to taste
2 pounds lean ground beef
2 (16 ounce) cans kidney beans, rinsed and drained
1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 (15 ounce) can tomato purée
1 cup water
1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chile peppers
2 tablespoons mild chili powder

2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
