Zero Points Freestyle Chili

Zero Points Weight Watchers Freestyle Chili Recipe

This Zero Points Weight Watchers Freestyle Chili recipe is SUPER quick, easy, and inexpensive to make. Simmer it on the stove (I like at least an hour to really let the flavors meld. It’s still good with less time and it only gets better with more). Make it in the slow cooker. Or make it in the Instant Pot – there is even a setting for it there!
