The most important food at a party is undeniably the dip. This homemade, gluten-free and low-carb chunky chili dip has all the ingredients necessary to make it a crowd-pleasing favorite on game day.
Heat oil in a large pot,. Season ground beef with salt and pepper and add to the pot. Cook stirring frequently, until it has browned, about 10 minutes. Add the onion, peppers, and garlic and cook until soft, about 10 more minutes. Add oregano, paprika, coriander, cumin, chili powder, garlic, and tomatoes, and jalapeño peppers (optional).Bring the pot to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for 1 hour.

Notes
No coconut oil? No problem. Feel free to use extra-virgin olive oil, avocado oil, or whichever oil you prefer.
Make sure to use sturdy chips for hearty dips like this one as thinner chips will break more easily. I recommend the tasty organic Green Mountain Gringo blue corn tortilla chips that I found at my local health food store. They are certified 100% gluten free. But while organic store-bought chips are a great option, nothing compares to the crisp freshness of these Homemade Potato Chips freshly baked right out of your own oven.
Following a low-carb way of eating? No problem. Dig in with celery sticks, slices of bell peppers, Crispy Cheese Crisps, or bake some Salami Chips or pepperoni slices until they're crispy so they'll be sturdy enough for dipping in. Yum.
Leftover dip will keep in the fridge for up to 3 to 4 days. Make sure the container is sealed tightly to maintain the dip's flavor and texture.
