I’d like to thank Hurst’s Brand for sponsoring this Crock Pot 15 Bean Salsa Chili! ❤️

It’s no secret that I’m a huge fan of Hurst’s Brand beans. I’ve shared my favorite Crock Pot 15 Bean Soup and my easy Rustic Lentil Stew recipes recently, but I just have to tell you about my new favorite family meal. It’s this thick, hearty and flavorful Crock Pot 15 Bean Salsa Chili!

Crock Pot 15 Bean Salsa Chili Recipe

I used Hurst’s® HamBeens® 15 Bean Soup® to create this Crock Pot 15 Bean Salsa Chili recipe. The 15 Bean Soup can be found with all of the other delicious Hurst’s varieties, in the dry beans section of your local grocery store. I get mine at Kroger!

Y’all, I totally get my love of beans honest. My grandpa, whom I really can’t bare to actually refer to as grandpa because I always called him Papaw, was a true bean fanatic.

Whenever I went to his house, he always greeted me with a familiar declaration…

I’ve got a pot of beans on! — My Papaw

I’m pretty sure Papaw ALWAYS had a pot of beans on!

Often when I have my own pot of beans on, it’s in my slow cooker. This Crock Pot 15 Bean Salsa Chili is a wonderful recipe to make on a cold winter day, or anytime you’re craving a flavorful and comforting family dinner.

High in fiber, calcium, and iron, beans are a great source of protein, and another reason I love adding them to my family’s diet as often as possible.

I’ve found that my kids really love to skip the spoon and eat this chili by dipping tortilla chips for each bite.

As long as it makes my kids more inclined to eat their dinner, it’s fine in my book. I have to admit that this thick salsa chili does taste great with cheese, cilantro and tortilla chips. You can even add a big dollop of sour cream on top!

We’ve even created this fun recipe tutorial video to show you the whole process. Pull up a chip and take a dip!

Since you guys usually ask, yes, this Crock Pot 15 Bean Salsa Chili recipe will freeze beautifully making it a great dish to prepare ahead for those busy weeknights this winter. It would also be a great snow-day recipe for those of you who have some snowy weather in the forecast! :) ❄️ Winter is definitely coming!
