My wife makes a chilli for the family but it's too mild for me so I add some Encona West Indian Hot Pepper sauce to my portion.
 
Mince, Peppers, Onions, 1 Tin tomatoes, 1 Tetra pack Passata, 1 tin Kidney Beans (leave out if really low carbing) 2/3 cloves garlic, cumin seeds, chilli powder to taste. Bung it all in the slow cooker and leave to simmer away for 3/4 hours (remember you can always add more spice if it's not strong enough, but taking it out is more difficult
 
If you want heat then a couple of drops of Tabasco Sauce should suffice (that stuff blows your socks off).
 
We just dice up small .. onion, lots of chestnut mushrooms, small carrot, small parsnip, celery, red peppers & fry them gently in coconut oil .. add paprika, chilli powder, pinch of salt, veg stock-cube & ground up garlic, let this simmer on the heat until the coconut oil has softened the veg .. then add desiccated coconut and a few table spoons of full fat plain yogurt .. leave on a low heat until the veg is soft .. serve with collie flower rice .. If your not low carb then add kidney beans and serve with white rice .. If the yogurt splits then add a tea spoon of cornflour mixed with cold water into the chilli .. it will bring it back to being a good looking sauce
But you may want to be vegetarian to really enjoy this LOL
 
Say, all those who gave me recipes & advice, many, many thanks. I'll try them all, yummy!! Squeekyboy (Steve)

I make it with mince, onions, garlic and I substitute mushrooms for the kidney beans. I just add chili powder to suit. I also serve it with courgette noodles which makes it quite low carb as well. I also add the tiniest pinch of cinnamon to take away the bitterness of tomatoes in it.
