If you're looking for a really easy family meal that you can chuck in the slow cooker in the morning then you need to try this chilli recipe.

My recipe is far from traditional, I've added three different veggies in there to boost the nutritional content, also helping to bulk out the portions.

How To Make Chilli in the Slow Cooker​

Just pop the following ingredients into the slow cooker:

• minced beef
• onion
• garlic
• carrot
• courgette
• red pepper
• kidney beans
• tinned tomatoes
• tomato puree
• beef stock pot
• spices: smoked paprika, mild chilli powder, ground cumin and ground coriander
• a little salt and pepper

I didn't pre-brown the meat before adding it. I sometimes find minced beef cooked in the slow cooker a little grainy if it hasn't been browned. But it was absolutely fine in this recipe so I don't think it needs it.

Mix all the ingredients together then cook on High for 5-6 hours or low for 7-8 hours.

Shortly before it's ready, just boil up some rice and it's ready to serve up.

Delicious, packed with nutrition and a brilliant family meal to have mid week.

For me, chilli isn't complete without the toppings. I add:

• grated cheese
• lime wedges
• coriander
• sour cream
