This chili is a great make-ahead meal. You can make it a day or two ahead of time and then just reheat it when you're ready to serve.

This chili is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. The butternut squash and carrots are hidden in the chili, so they don't even realize they're eating them.

I'm a vegetarian, so I made this chili without the chicken. It was still delicious! I added a can of black beans and a can of corn, and it turned out great.

This chili is so versatile! You can easily adjust the heat level by adding more or less chili powder, and you can also add different toppings like cheese, sour cream, or avocado. It's also a great way to use up leftover vegetables.

I love the smoky flavor that the chipotle peppers add to this chili. It really gives it a unique and delicious flavor. I also like to add a bit of chopped bacon to my chili for an extra savory flavor.

I was a bit hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a huge fan of butternut squash, but I'm so glad I did! The squash actually mellows out the heat from the chili powder and cumin, and it adds a really nice sweetness and creaminess. I'll definite
