Slow Cooker Taco Chili

Cold days call for hot meals.  This chili will heat things up in more than one way. It wasn't too spicy but it did leave a nice zing in your mouth.

I like to make my own taco seasoning as I have all the ingredients on hand. Feel free to make your own or use a store bought seasoning packet.
