SLOW COOK 3-BEAN CHILI (VEGETARIAN AND GLUTEN FREE)

Slow Cook 3-Bean Chili (Vegetarian and Gluten Free) image

This is a wonderfully filling (high protein) yet yummy 3-bean, gluten-free, and vegetarian chili. I like to serve this chili over gluten-free macaroni and top it with shredded cheddar cheese and Greek yogurt.
