What better for a cold winter's day then some spicy chili. This is a red chicken version with enough kick to make you forget about the red meat. I use a mixture of pintos, great northern, and adzuki beans. Use whatever bean mixture you like. Prepare everything overnight, so you can get up for breakfast, pour everything into the crock-pot and forget about till dinner time. The aroma from the cumin will kick-start any appetite.
