1 tbsp. vegetable oil
1 cup finely chopped onion
1 cup chopped red bell pepper
2 tbsp. minced jalapeño pepper
1 clove garlic, minced
1 28 oz. can crushed tomatoes
1 15 oz. can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 15 oz. can chili beans, rinsed and drained
1/2 cup canned corn
1/4 cup tomato paste
1 tsp. sugar
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp. dried basil leaves
1 tsp. chili powder
1/4 tsp. black pepper
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chopped onion, bell pepper, jalapeño pepper and garlic. Cook and stir for 5 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Spoon vegetables into slow cooker. Add remaining ingredients and mix well. Cover and cook on low 4 to 5 hours. Garnish with cheese and sour cream, if desired.
Here is the delicious end result:
NOTE: I got a little over excited (or maybe just distracted) and dumped the veggies right into the crock pot without cooking them in the skillet first. While it isn't preferred, I just wanted to let you know that if you do it this way the chili will still turn out just fine. :-)

That looks DELICIOUS!!!! Great, now I need to go to the store so I can pick up what I don't have to make it...
P.S. Dean said you guys are having a BBQ this Sat? I'm bummed because I already have a committment that I have to be to that I've known about for 2 months so I can't go. But Dean said something about you guys maybe changing it and having it on Sunday or did I completely misunderstand what he was saying? Point being, WE MISS YOU GUYS AND REALLY REALLY WANT TO HANG OUT!
