   1                    egg
   1      small         onion -- chopped
   1      clove         garlic -- minced
   1      small         fresh green chili -- seeded and minced
                        -- {optional}
   1                    tablespon chili powder
     1/2  teaspoon      ground cumin
   1      1/2 pounds    ground beef or ground turkey -- up to 1
     1/2  cup           shredded low fat cheddar cheese

Preparation:

Combine first 8 ingredients and salt to taste in a bowl. Mix thoroughly. Add meat and mix until blended. Pat into a loaf or round shape (depending on your cooker's dimensions) and place on a rack** in slowcooker. Cook all day on low or 5 hours on high. Sprinkle shredded cheddar over top of loaf and return lid to cooker. Cook until cheese melts. Let stand 5 minutes before slicing. ** Note about racks: It's been suggested to use a wire rack that fits the cooker, or to use three canning jar lids to lift up the meat from the grease that accumulates.
