Dinner: Slow-Cooker Beef and Black-Bean Chili

There's no need to soak these dried beans because they simmer in the slow cooker. Save a little of the chopped red onion for a fresh garnish.

Ingredients

1 lb. beef chuck
1 can tomato puree
1 c. dried black beans
1 medium red onion
2 clove garlic
3 tbsp. chili powder
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1/4 c. sour cream

Instructions

In a 5- to 6-quart slow cooker, combine beef, tomato puree, beans, onion (reserve 1 tablespoon for garnish), garlic, chili powder, 2 cups water, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Cover, and cook on high, 6 hours (or on low, 8 hours). Serve chili topped with sour cream and reserved onion.
