Slow Cooker Chili With Salsa

"Brrrrrr, this cold weather really makes me crave a steaming hot bowl of hearty, zingy chili! But, I have to be honest, I am not always up for chopping all those veggies. It is a lot of work, and even though there is a big payoff in the form of yummy homemade chili, sometimes I just don't make it because of the time and effort involved. One simple ingredient ended up being the solution to all my chili woes, and the best part is that it is nothing fancy...I usually have it on hand in my pantry! The simple ingredient is…..drumroll please…..chunky salsa! It already contains the chopped veggies, and it totally enhances the flavor of the chili. Brown the ground beef, add some beans and spices, and you are well on your way to an awesome home-cooked meal with minimal effort. "
