This chili is okay, but I've had better. I probably won't make it again.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my chili turned out really watery. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This chili was really easy to make, but it didn't have a lot of flavor. I think it could be improved with some more spices.

I found this chili to be a bit bland. I added some extra spices to give it more flavor.

This chili was too spicy for me. I would recommend using less chipotle peppers.

I wasn't a huge fan of the squash in this chili. I think it would be better with just sweet potatoes.

I added some chopped cilantro to my chili before serving. It really brightened up the flavor.

This chili is a great way to use up leftover squash. I always have a few butternut squash in my fridge, so this is a great recipe to have on hand.

I love the smoky flavor the chipotle peppers give to this chili.

I wasn't sure how I would like squash in chili, but I was pleasantly surprised. It added a really nice sweetness and depth of flavor.

This chili is the perfect comfort food for a cold winter day. It's hearty, filling, and absolutely delicious.

I love how easy this chili is to make. I just threw everything in my slow cooker and let it cook all day. Dinner was ready when I got home from work!

This fiery squash chili was a hit with my family! The squash added a unique and delicious flavor, and the chipotle peppers gave it just the right amount of heat. I will definitely be making this again.
