Here is what I do for that, Bri. I know there are a lot of ingredients, but it is really yum, and it is simpler than it looks if you have a good can opener.

Yummy Slow Cooker Chicken Chili

1 19oz can of black bean soup (I like to use a southwestern black bean chicken soup by Progresso.)
1 15oz can of Kidney Beans, rinsed and drained
1 15oz can of garbanzos, rinsed and drained
1 15oz can of baked beans (whatever variety you like)
1 15oz can of chopped tomatoes in puree
1 15oz can of whole kernel corn, drained
1 cup of cooked chicken (or you can use that canned kind)
1 onion, chopped
1 green bell pepper chopped
2 stalks of celery, chopped
2 cloves of garlic, chopped
1 T chili powder or to taste
1 T dried parsley
1 T dried oregano
1 T dried basil

Combine everything in a slow cooker and cook for at least 2 hours on high.

You could probably use one of those packages of pre-cooked chicken you find with packaged deli meats, if you wanted.

my chile recipe:
2-3 lbs coarse ground beef or venison
one Wick Fowlers 2 alarm chili mix
sear the meat and drain. open chili packet, set aside the masa flour for later
1 sam adams 22oz ale (or your fav beer)
add all packets then add
2 8 oz cans tomato sauce
5 roma tomatoes chopped
2 big cloves of garlic smashed and diced
5 jalapenos sliced
2 sprigs FRESH oregano diced
roommate absolutely cannot stand onions. not allowed in the house even. anyway, one yellow onion diced or chopped. your choice. 1015 onion if you can get them.
1 package sliced mushrooms
sea salt to taste
1 tsp cumin
2 tbs chili powder
bring it to boil then reduce heat to simmer and cover stirring about every 15 minutes for an hour and a half.
then slowly stir in the masa flour packet. you will probably need to add more flour than what they provide so have some ready to use if need be.
1 package spaghetti or vermicelli
when heating the water for the pasta add a couple tbs of olive oil to prevent sticking.

serve like you would a normal plate of spaghetti only rather that Parmesan cheese use grated cheddar or your favorite shredded cheese. kraft 4 cheese mexican works really well.
enjoy!

There is also Six Gun Chili Mix, should work every bit as well, plthijinx. I don't care for the Carroll Shelby mix -- too much guajillo in the pepper mix gives it a bitter finish.

ok. i've done shawnee's recipe twice now and am thoroughly satisfied. making them is a bit of a chore but no worries. this is a recipe that will stay with me for the rest of my life. now what i'm looking for is this: another recipe. i love to cook. i love to please people. i love to please people especially through cooking. someone pony up a recipe that is not only awesome but kinda cheap to cook. like 30 bucks or so. when i start working in engineering again then the sky is the limit. i'm still on a budget at the moment. when i do start working again i will post my gumbo. sucker costs about 75 bucks to make and is a royal pain in the ass but worth every dollar and minute. i have not gone back through this thread (i may love to cook but at times..just lazy) SO if you have a recipe that you would like to recommend....please post here. or pm me. prefer posting here so i can share with all. pics will be posted doing said recipe.

alright then here's what's for supper tonight.

pork spareribs in a bed and blanket of peppers.

1 red bell pepper sliced
1 yellow bell pepper sliced
3 cloves garlic smashed and diced
1 box mushrooms sliced
3 jalapeņo peppers sliced

spice to taste. in this case the spices are:
brown sugar
fresh ground pepper
sea salt
lemon pepper
mccormicks montreal steak seasoning

lay out a long sheet of aluminum foil and use half of the peppers/veggies as a bed. put the ribs on then spice them to taste. after that put the rest of the peppers/veggies on top and wrap it up good. and i mean good. use several sheets of foil. you want it pretty much sealed to hold in the moisture. you can certainly use the oven and if you do set temp at around 250 - 275. you want to slooooow cook this recipe. even slower if you are using beef ribs instead of pork. if beef i recommend 200 deg. you want to cook them at about an hour per pound at these temps. in this case i'm using the grill today. houston weather. ya gotta love it. friday night it was 24 deg. at work. today? upper 50's lower 60's. anyway slow cook the slab for about 2 to 2.5 hours then cut open the top of the foil and remove the ribs and put them on the grill for browning. put peppers/veggies aside for munching on later. that's pretty much it.... damn i love to cook. more pics later. it's on the grill as i type this.
