At our house, we just love a good comforting, hearty, tomato-based chili with bold flavors! This unique chili is loaded with veggies and flavor. You can also prepare the recipe in the slow cooker. Just add ingredients to the crock and cook over high heat for about 4 hours. -Courtney Stultz, Weir, Kansas

I'm not usually a fan of chili, but this recipe changed my mind. The butternut squash added a sweetness that I really enjoyed. I also liked the use of chicken instead of beef. It made the chili lighter and healthier.

I made this chili for a party and it was a huge hit! Everyone loved it. I especially liked the addition of corn and black beans. They added a nice texture and flavor to the chili.

This chili was a bit too thick for my taste. I think I would add more liquid next time. Other than that, it was a delicious and easy recipe.

This chili was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. He said it was the best chili he's ever had. I think next time I'll use less chili powder.

This chili was just okay. I found it to be a bit bland and the butternut squash didn't really add much flavor. I also thought the chicken was a bit dry.

This is my new favorite chili recipe. It's so easy to make and it's always a crowd-pleaser. I love that I can use whatever vegetables I have on hand. I've made it with butternut squash, sweet potatoes, and even zucchini. It's always delicious.

This chili was a hit with my family! The combination of chicken and butternut squash was unique and delicious. The sweetness of the squash balanced out the heat of the chili perfectly. I will definitely be making this again.
