Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground hamburger
- 2 cans beans (such as kidney or black beans), drained
- 1 can corn, drained
- 1 can diced tomatoes or tomato sauce
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Shredded cheese (optional, for topping)
Instructions
- Prep your ingredients: Start by browning the ground hamburger with the chopped onion and minced garlic in a skillet over medium heat until fully cooked. Drain any excess fat for a healthier option.
- Combine in the slow cooker: In your slow cooker, combine the cooked hamburger mixture with the drained beans, corn, diced tomatoes, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper.
- Stir well: Give everything a good stir to ensure all ingredients are well mixed.
- Let it cook: Cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours. The longer it cooks, the more the flavors meld together!
- Top it off: If desired, sprinkle shredded cheese on top shortly before serving for an added layer of richness.
- Serve hot: Dish out the casserole while it’s hot and enjoy the comfort it brings to your table!
Notes
For a healthier option, top with avocado slices or Greek yogurt instead of cheese.
