I Made a Hearty Slow Cooker Chilli Con Carne & You Can Too

Chilli Con Carne is perfect this time of year. It's warm, filling and contains just the right amount of spice and flavour. It's also exceptionally quick and easy to make, but it still requires some time and effort when done in a pan. 

Recently, we've been preparing up our chilli con carne in the slow cooker while we've been working and trust me, it's an absolute game changer. Even the rice isn't a problem as we go for the packets that can cook in 2 minutes in the microwave. So how can you simmer up a chilli con carne in your slow cooker? Let me tell you :)

Prep time: 10 minutes

Cook time: 2/2.5 hours

Serves: 4

Ingredients

*500g 5% fat beef mince

*170g Homepride Slow Cooker Chilli Con Carne sauce

*400g kidney beans
