Fall’s cold air makes me want to hibernate under a pile of warm blankets. This slow cooker recipe is perfect for those days you just want to Netflix and chili.

Health Benefits of Bell Peppers

This paleo brisket chili recipe calls for 2 bell peppers. That’s a really great veggie to consume as cold and flu season begins.

Why? Because bell peppers are brimming with vitamin C – just one contains more than 100% of the recommended dietary allowance. Red bell peppers contain the highest amount.

Bell peppers are also good sources of beta-carotene – if you’re looking to ward off cancer, select green bell peppers, which offer the highest levels of this carotenoid.

And that’s not all. Bell peppers also boast vitamin K1, vitamin E, vitamin A, folate, and potassium. They’re basically multivitamins that happen to be a lot easier to swallow.

What Pairs Well with Brisket Chili

While this dish is hearty enough to go solo, you might want to pair it with a little something extra.

Mashed cauliflower is one option. It goes over well with people who identify as “meat and potatoes” eaters.

Cauliflower rice works well too. The chili adds flavor to the rice, while the rice offers some nice texture.

You could also serve this chili up with some roasted sweet potatoes. This is my personal favorite.
