    Fire Roasted Slow Cooker Chilii {Beard and Bonnet} #glutenfree #vegan
    Fire Roasted Slow Cooker Chili

    As soon as the weather starts to become cooler in the fall I immediately start making soups, stews, and chili. In years past I have regrettably neglected to break out my slow cooker, but this year I have been focused on developing a nice selection of slow cooker recipes for my family for those days when I don't have a lot of time to devote to dinner.

    When I was making soups and chili without my slow cooker, I felt so strapped to the stove and to the house that it was more of a hassle to make my favorite fall dishes than a pleasure. With 2 kids that are constantly on the go and a business myself I have been finding it increasingly hard to plan in advance for slow simmering soup days, but when I put my slow cooker to work my family and I don't have to give up on the fall foods we love or the intense flavors that only cooking a meal low and slow can achieve.

    Todd and Eliza have been reaping the rewards of my slow cooker obsession with some pretty amazing lunches that are a nice swap up from their usual sandwich and salad routine. I am pretty sure that they are officially spoiled when it comes to homemade lunches and I am OK with that!

     Here are a few of my favorite slow cooker cookbooks:

    Fresh from the Vegetarian Slow Cooker by Robin Robertson: I have now made vegetable broth, applesauce, two types of soup, and 3 chili recipes from this book and I am completely hooked! Robin's recipes are easy to follow and have yet to disappoint. Next on my "to-make" list from this cookbook is Robin's Slow Cooker Pumpkin-Pecan Bread, how did I not know you can bake bread in a slow cooker?!  I plan on subbing a few ingredients to make the bread gluten-free, but I'm positive that the final product will be delicious. I am not alone in my love for this book, check out what Kiersten of Oh My Veggies has to say about this book.

    Vegan Slow Cooking for Two or Just For You by Kathy Hester: This is Kathy's 3rd cookbook and I have to say it is hands down my favorite! This book loaded with all sorts of fabulous recipes from soups, stews, pumpkin spice syrup, risotto's and more. I seriously can't say enough nice things about this book! Kathy includes oil free, soy free, and gluten free options for most of the recipes which I can really appreciate since different members of my extended family fall into all of these categories. I have even purchased a few extra copies of this book for Christmas presents this year I like it so much. I am not alone in my love of this book either; just see what Cara of Fork and Beans had to say about it. 

    Do you have a favorite slow cooker recipe?

      Our minds are on the same track! I started making sweet potato smoothies with pumpkin pie spices for breakfast, and then you posted your pumpkin pie smoothie recipe! I just made a slow cooker chili for dinner, and now here's yours! Maybe it's just this lovely Fall weather. I'm a Penzey's 3000 chili powder girl; I love their blend! I don't have a kitchen, so I have an assortment of slow cookers, a large toaster oven, and just got a Cusinart griddler, that I can use to brown things before putting them in the slow cooker. But I'm pretty excited about my new Slow Cooker Revolution vol 2 cookbook by America's Test Kitchen. I find I can't make a lot of slow cooker recipes because I don't have a stove. But they worked to simplify the prep in these recipes, without reducing the flavors. I'm seeing myself cooking my way through this one! One of my slow cookers is a Vita Clay multicooker, and I like that one because it only takes 2 hours and the flavors seem intensified. I just made a lovely Borscht that I'll be having for lunch!

        Well, they do say that great minds think alike...right? I am loving my slow cooker right now and I am really impressed that you can make all of the dishes that you do without an actual kitchen! That is seriously impressive:) I am going to have to look out for that cookbook...it sounds like another great one.
