It’s getting cooler every day, and that means I’ve started to break out my crock pot!

I love stews, soups, and chilis, and I am excited to share this recipe with you.

I have been working on nailing down a hearty chili recipe that everyone in my house loves, and this one was gotten rave reviews from everyone in my house.

Keto Diet Chili

This keto chocolate chili may seem difficult to make, but I promise it’s a lot simpler than it seems.

Don’t let a long list of ingredients scare you off.

I would also like to encourage you to get creative in the kitchen and try your own.

That’s what I try to do daily.

Sometimes I fail big time, but if you start small and keep tasting throughout, you can’t mess a meal up too badly. 😉

It doesn't have to be a cold night to enjoy this delicious ground beef chili recipe. Combining chili and kielbasa is a favorite of mine and the chocolate powder gives this chili a flavor profile worth sharing! Rich, slightly sweet, and mild is a great way to describe this south of the border experience.

Can't wait to try it, but omitting the Worcester sauce- it contains gluten.

I'm so glad I just ran across your blog! I love chili, but I haven't found a keto recipe that has really sounded good to me. This one sounds fantastic! We are expecting cooler temps next week, so this is definitely going on the menu.
