Easy Medium Spicy Chili image

Medium spicy chili that is not overwhelming and generally will please everyone. Very Easy to Make. Chipotle Chili in Adobo Sauce adds a nice smoky kick but still a good chili if you don;t have this ingredient on hand. I use Tomato sauce but any type of tomato will do. Diced, crushed, whatever you prefer or have on hand. I love mushrooms so I use a lot. I don;t love Kdney beans as much so I use less. I use a crockpot for cooking but a dutch oven or larger stockpot with lid will do just as well. Adjust ingredients to yor own tastes. It is after all Chili!
