CHICKEN, BEANS, AND BARLEY SLOW COOKER CHILI



Chicken, Beans, and Barley Slow Cooker Chili image

Quick-cooking barley and pre-cooked chicken makes this pot of chili quick, thick, and comforting. I am going to serve it with Cheddar cornbread. Serve with what ever toppings you might like. I used stock that I made from the picked chicken that I used for the chili. Made it that much richer.

TURKEY CHILI WITH BARLEY AND BLACK EYED BEANS



Turkey Chili with Barley and Black Eyed Beans image

Good, low calorie, high fibre dish. I have substituted lean ground beef on occasion. If I use canned beans I will use a 19 oz can of drained black beans. Usually I prefer beans that I have prepared from dry.
