I have many variations on my chili recipe and often what goes in it is dependent on what I find in the cupboard. On this particular day, I didn’t have any kidney beans on hand so I chose to use garbonzo beans in their place. Whatever bean you choose, it is sure to warm you from the inside on a cold day! Chili is one of my husband’s favourite meals, so I made sure to include it in the freezer bags I prepared for him while I was away.
good idea, especially if you have unexpected company. I do freezer foods never thought of chili though.
Yum! I often freeze chili after I have cooked it but have never thought about freezing in advance so it is ready to pop in the slow cooker, will have to try that out!
Another great freezer dinner! Thanks for the recipe!
I love the space saving freezer meal ideas! Thank you so much!
thinking about doing this with payday coming up. never used garbonzo beans never really heard of them, do you have to soak them first?
I used the canned garbonzo beans so I just have to rinse them. They are what hummus is made from. I love them!
I also have been doing this too, sure comes in handy and thaws out alot faster
that’s a great idea!
I absolutely love chili. I never thought to freeze it. That would be awesome for busy days.
Chili is one of my go to faves, would be great to have it already & just pop it in the cooker
I use a mix of canned beans too – whatever is around. Have you ever thought of putting various colours of peppers in your chili? I stock up when they are on sale, chop, freeze and add to chili, stir-fry’s, soups etc.
I hadn’t thought of cooking freezer dinners in the slow cooker. It’ll be a wonderful way to be able to forget about it all day and then have a meal ready at suppertime! Thanks for these recipes.
I really love this idea because I love chill and I love that I can make it ahead, freeze it and when I need it, it’s there!
I am so happy to have another Freezer Bag Recipe. This is another recipe I want to try. I thought you had to put kidney beans in Chili. Anyway, I know beans are a good source of protein and thank you for this recipe.
This looks amazing and the ingredients sound good together.

We love chili because it makes such a great meal outdoors, and tastes better with each meal…however, though we use all of your ingredients we have never had the patience to slow-cook it. Does it actually improve the taste?
My daughter loves chili and with our busy nights, prepping ahead and freezing will save precious time
