Thank you Marilyn for linking up at the #BloggingGrandmothersLinkParty 34! Shared x 3. Now, do tell me what is the plastic on the pot?
Thank you Dee. You are always such a huge help to me. That plastic is a crock pot liner. It makes cleanup and transfer of leftovers a huge help. I never have to scour the pot. Just wipe it out with soap and water. I hope you get to try one! They are next to the ziplock bags in the grocery aisle. Enjoy your weekend!
Oh ok, a liner…I should have known. I love cooking in a crock pot. Have you tried one of the Instant Pots yet?
I much rather use my crock pot. I got a new stove last year and it has a convection oven setting. I have no idea how to use it or when. Supposed to just be a press of a button. I have 4 different size crock pots so I never got an Instant Pot. I am thinking it is a cross between a crock and a pressure cooker. Do you use one? And how do you like the difference?
I enjoy using my crock pots, seems simple and easy enough but my daughter got an Instant Pot and raved about it, so I got one too. I grew up when women were using pressure cookers on the stove top and many a holes were blown thru the kitchen ceilings by those things – so, using one scared me. From what I’ve learned, these new pots are not like the old pressure cookers. These are electric and seem to be safe and a hit with the younger generation that doesn’t have time to cook a nourishing meal once they and their kids all get home in the evenings. I’ve used it a few times, still not convinced I’ll use it regularly.
You just made me laugh! I remember making pumpkin puree the first time for pie fillings. That pressure cooker blew it all over the ceiling, stove and walls. What a mess trying to get it NOT to bleed through when we painted. I was lucky no one was near the stove when it went. My mom used to say “when the gauge started rocking to MOVE BACK.” LOL.
It’s definitely the right time of year for a hearty pot of soup – I’m glad you shared this week on our Encouraging Hearts & Home blog hop!
Thank you Linda. We just love a warm bowl of hearty soup and I am always looking for more recipes. Have a great week.
I love an easy crockpot meal and this one looks like a winner, Marilyn!

I love beans and if it can be mixed in with chili all the better, I say! Great recipe Marilyn! Pinning.

Thank you for being such. A gracious host. I will be seeing more of your parties in the future! Have a lovely week!
I have some very similar recipes and I never thought of pureeing one of the cans of beans to make it thicker. What a great tip! I will have to try it next time chili is on the menu! Thanks for sharing at My Busy Beehives #beeparty
I love the thicker dishes in the crock pot. It tends to make them watery and I hate using corn starch to thicken. I hope you like it! Have a lovely week!
Yumm! I am going to have to make this for my dad, he love white bean soup, but I never thought about making that into chili!
I love a good thick soup and this chili goes one step beyond. I hope you all enjoy it! That pic was from a chili cookoff. It came ion #2 out of 8 entries! Thanks for sharing your thoughts and have a wonderful week!
Thanks for sharing with us Marilyn. It sounds like a good recipe combo. Have a great week.

One of my go to meals. I like tons and tons of cilantro in mine!
This chili is a great alternative to the most common types. I love my crock pot! Enjoy your week!
