The sweet potatoes were a bit undercooked for my taste. I would have preferred them to be a bit softer.

This recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with a spicier chili.

I was a bit skeptical about this recipe, but I'm glad I tried it. The sweet potatoes and chili were a surprisingly good combination. I'll definitely be making this again.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chili. I had some leftover turkey chili and it worked perfectly. The sweet potatoes were a nice change from the usual rice or pasta.

I'm not usually a fan of sweet potatoes, but this recipe changed my mind. The chili was perfectly seasoned and the sweet potatoes were tender and flavorful. I'll definitely be making this again.

This recipe was a hit with my family! The combination of sweet potatoes and chili was unexpected but worked so well together. The leftovers were even better the next day.

Absolutely delicious and easy to make! I used ground turkey instead of beef and it turned out great. The sweet potatoes were perfectly cooked and the chili was flavorful and satisfying. Definitely a keeper recipe!
