How to Make Cowboy Bean Crunch in a Crock Pot

Aunt Lou here.

This Crock Pot Cowboy Bean Crunch is so good it needs to come with a warning. Something like, “Warning: This is so good you might eat too much!” While Cris first made this recipe years ago, this is the first time my family has tried it, and it was a huge hit. Michael even said, “Add this to the list of my absolute favorite recipes you have ever made!” Considering how many different recipes I make, that is high praise.

While this recipe does have a longer prep time than many of my recipes, it is seriously easy to make. The longer prep time just comes from chopping up the pepper, onions and bacon and from frying it all together with the ground beef. So, it isn’t hard to put together, it just takes about 15 to 20 minutes to get it ready for the crock pot to do its work. The result is a dish that young and old alike love!
