Gluten-Free/Vegan

Grandma's Slow Cooker Vegetarian Chili

Finding a gluten-free chili is easy (no flour thickening!). But a gluten-free, vegan chili can be a bit trickier. This recipe nails it with a mix of baked beans, garbanzo beans, kidney beans, and black bean soup, all paired with fresh veggies and bold spices.

Paleo

This paleo recipe doesn't hold back on meat—ground bison and pork sausage take center stage, while coconut oil is used for sautéing.

No Beans

Tori's Beanless Chili

Being from Texas isn't exactly a dietary restriction, but don't even think about serving a Texan chili with beans. This one is all about keeping it 100% Texan-approved.
