Best Cheesy Slow Cooker Chili Recipes

CHEESY SLOW COOKER CHILI DOGS

Steps:

• Place hot dogs in a slow cooker. Mix chili, Cheddar cheese soup, ketchup, and chopped green chilies in a bowl and pour over hot dogs. Cover cooker and set to Low; cook 4 to 5 hours (can cook longer if desired).
• Serve hot dogs on buns topped with a large spoonful of chili, 1 teaspoon of chopped onion, 1 tablespoon of shredded Cheddar cheese, and about 2 tablespoons crushed corn chips.

CHEESY SLOW COOKER WHITE CHILI

Steps:

• Stir beans, chicken, Alfredo sauce, chicken broth, green chilies, yellow corn, white corn, Monterey Jack cheese, pepperjack cheese, sour cream, cumin, garlic, white pepper, and cayenne pepper together in a slow cooker.
• Cook on Low, stirring occasionally, 3 to 4 hours.

SLOW COOKER VEGETARIAN CHEESY CHILI MAC WITH OPTIONAL GROUND BEEF

Steps:

• Combine the tomatoes, beans, onion, garlic, and spices in your Crock Pot. If you're going for the full-on meat version, go ahead and brown your pound of hamburger in a separate frying pan, drain, and add that now, too. You'll add meat later if you're going half veggie/half carnie.
• Cook on low for about 7 - 9 hours. But it's pretty forgiving if you need to cook it for longer.
• Boil the macaroni according to package directions, but cut the time short by a minute or so to make sure it's just nice and al dente, or else the noodles might swell up to epic and less appetizing proportions in the finished product.
• Stir the macaroni, along with half the cheese, into the Crock Pot with the chili.
• For the half veggie/half carnie adaptetarian version, here's where you split it. If you're going all vegetarian or all meat, ignore this step and move on to Step 6. Move half of the cheesy chili maccy goodness into a medium casserole dish. Brown your half pound of hamburger in a separate frying pan, drain it, and stir the hamburger into the mixture in the casserole dish. Sprinkle over the top with half the remaining cheese, and bake the meaty version at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.
• Sprinkle all the remaining cheese over the Crock Pot mixture, cover with the Crock Pot lid, and cook for another 20 - 30 minutes, until the cheese is melted.
• Now get cozy, and enjoy!
