1. Put beans in a large soup pot; add water to cover by 2 inches; let soak overnight.

3. In a big skillet, let the oil get heated over medium heat.
4. Add in the onion and jalapeno pepper; stir/saute until veggies are soft.
5. Add in the garlic, chili powder, oregano, and cumin; stir for 30 seconds.
6. Add in the tomatoes with puree; bring to a simmer and break up the tomatoes with a spoon.
7. Transfer mixture to a 4 quart slow-cooker.
8. Add in carrots, celery, zucchini, the bell peppers and garbanzos; stir to combine.
9. Cover and cook on LOW 6-7 hours or until the garbanzos are tender.
10. Season to taste with salt.
11. **Note--youmay substitute 3 (16 oz) cans well-drained garbanzo beans instead of the dried beans; add drained canned beans to the chili during the last hour of cooking.
