Notes
SLOW COOKER INSTRUCTIONS
You don’t need to use the olive oil if you are going to make this in a slow cooker. Add the other ingredients to the slow cooker but omit the cream cheese. Cook on low for about 6-8 hours. Add the cream cheese in about 30 minutes before you are going to eat—long enough for it to melt completely in. BEAN OPTIONSIf you can't find cannellini beans, you can also use great northern beans. Kidney, pinto, and black beans will also work but will change the color of the chili.
