This chili was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. I probably won't make it again.

This chili was a bit too thick for my taste. I think I'll add more liquid next time.

This chili was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less cayenne pepper.

This was an easy and delicious chili to make. I used ground beef instead of turkey and it was still very flavorful. I served it with sour cream and shredded cheese and it was a big hit.

This chili was a hit with my family! It was flavorful and hearty, and the ground turkey made it a healthier option. I will definitely be making this again.
