Ingredients
  

4 medium potatoes, diced

1 lb ground beef (or turkey for a lighter option)

1 can (15 oz) kidney beans, drained and rinsed

1 can (15 oz) diced tomatoes with green chilies

1 packet chili seasoning mix

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (plus extra for topping)

1 medium onion, chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup beef or vegetable broth

1 teaspoon olive oil

1 teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon black pepper

½ teaspoon cumin

Optional: Sliced jalapeños for garnish

Optional: Chopped green onions for garnish

Optional: Sour cream for serving

Instructions
 

Sauté the Beef and Veggies: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until the onion becomes translucent (about 3-4 minutes). Add the ground beef and cook until browned. Drain any excess grease.

    Combine the Ingredients: In your crockpot, layer the diced potatoes, cooked ground beef and onion mixture, kidney beans, diced tomatoes (with juices), and the chili seasoning mix. Stir to combine.

      Add Liquid Seasonings: Pour the beef or vegetable broth over the mixture. Add the salt, black pepper, and cumin, stirring one last time to ensure everything is evenly distributed.

        Cook: Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the potatoes are tender and the flavors have melded beautifully.

          Cheesify It: Once cooked, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the mixture in the crockpot. Cover again and let it sit for about 10-15 minutes until the cheese is melted and gooey.

            Serve: Stir everything together, serving in bowls. Top with extra cheese, sliced jalapeños, chopped green onions, and a dollop of sour cream if desired.

              Enjoy: Dig into your hearty, comforting Cheesy Chili Potato Delight and savor every bite!
