Brown 1 lb lean ground beef with 1/2 small white onion (diced) and drain.
In a medium bowl, combine ground beef mixture, 2 cloves garlic (minced), 8 oz can tomato sauce, 6 tablespoons tomato paste, 1 tablespoon chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/3 cup low sodium Beef Broth until well blended.
Spread the mixture in a 2.5 Quart Small Casserole Crock Pot, 4 Quart Crock Pot or a 6 Quart Crock Pot (with a 6 Quart Crock Pot, you will want to put the ingredients in a heat safe bowl that fits in the insert, add water to the insert, making sure it does not go over halfway up the side of the bowl, cover and cook per timing below).
Top mixture with 1/2 cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese.
Cover and cook on low for 2-3 hours or high for 1-1.5 hours, rotating your insert halfway through the cooking time, if your slow cooker does not cook evenly.
Spoon servings onto a plate and top with Fritos and, if desired, sour cream, diced red onion, shredded cheddar cheese.

As with any of our recipes, carb counts, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly. As a result, your nutritional content depends on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish. The auto-calculation is just an automated estimate and should NOT be used for specific dietary needs.
All slow cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline. Recipes should always be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed.
