Crockpot Chili with Turmeric Essential Oil

A good bowl of homemade chili is the perfect dinner on a cold, rainy night. As a mom, anything in the crockpot is a winner in my book. My family absolutely loves it, and I love to give it a little extra love and health benefits with a couple drops of Turmeric essential oil. Let’s get cooking!

Ingredients:

-2 1/2 lbs grass fed ground beef

-1 small yellow onion, chopped

-1 28oz can crushed tomatoes

-1 1/2 cups beef broth (I love Kettle & Fire)

-2 tablespoons tomato paste

-2 cloves garlic, minced

-1 bay leaf

-2 1/2 tablespoons chili powder

-3 teaspoons salt (Redmond salt is my favorite)

-2 teaspoons cumin powder

-1 teaspoon smoked paprika

-2 drops doTERRA Turmeric essential oil

-1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

-1/4 teaspoon black pepper

-2 cans kidney beans, rinsed and drained

Place all ingredients in the crockpot and cook on low for 6-8 hours. We love to serve ours with shredded cheddar, sour cream, & avocado.
