For an even richer flavor, try browning the sausage with the chopped onion in the skillet before transferring to the slow cooker. Feel free to experiment with different types of beans, such as pinto or black beans, to customize the chili to your liking. A dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt, a sprinkle of shredded cheese, and a few chopped green onions make excellent toppings for this chili. This chili can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The flavors will meld and deepen even further. If you don't have spicy sausage, you can use regular sausage and add a pinch of cayenne pepper for some heat.
