I developed this recipe myself when I was 16. It freezes well and almost tastes better the day after you make it. The variety of vegetables make it colorful to serve and give it the calico name.-Camille Gouldsborough, Grosse Isle, Manitoba.

This chili was a disappointment. It was very bland and lacked flavor. I followed the recipe exactly, but it just didn't turn out well. I wouldn't recommend this recipe to anyone.

I'm not a fan of this chili. I found it to be too spicy and the flavor was just not to my liking. I also didn't like the fact that it had beans in it. I prefer a more traditional chili without beans.

This chili was just okay. I found it to be a bit too bland for my taste. I think it could have used more spices. I also didn't like the texture of the ground beef. It was a bit too mushy for my liking.

This chili is so good! I love the smoky flavor from the chipotle peppers. It's also nice and thick, which I prefer in a chili. I served it with cheese, sour cream, and tortilla chips, and it was the perfect meal.

I've made this chili several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. It's the perfect dish to serve at a party or potluck. I usually double the recipe so that I have plenty of leftovers.

This chili is amazing! The combination of ground beef, sausage, and bacon gives it so much flavor. I also love the addition of corn and black beans. It's a hearty and delicious meal that's perfect for a cold winter day.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and always turns out great. I usually add a little bit of extra chili powder to give it a bit more heat, but that's just my personal preference.

This chili was easy to make and absolutely delicious. I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfect. I served it with sour cream, cheese, and cornbread, and it was a huge hit with my family.

I'm not usually a fan of chili, but this recipe changed my mind. The sweetness from the corn and black beans was a great contrast to the heat from the chili powder and cumin. I'll definitely be making this again.

This Calico Chili was a hit at my last party! Everyone loved the unique blend of spices and the tender, flavorful meat. I'll definitely be making this again soon.
