Slow Cooker Chili

The best chili in town! High in flavor, fiber, protein and yes, somewhat in calories. I think that the high calorie count is not too high for a dinner meal, but I'll let you be the judge. Only takes half an hour to prepare. Serve with a nice green salad and your meal is complete. Feedback is welcome!
