I'm not usually a fan of chili, but this recipe changed my mind. It's so fresh and flavorful, and it's not too heavy.

This chili is a great way to use up all the fresh summer produce. It's also a great freezer meal - just cook it up and freeze it in individual portions for an easy weeknight meal.

This chili was a total flop. The flavors just didn't come together, and it was way too watery.

Overall, I thought this chili was pretty good. It was easy to make and had a nice flavor. However, I would have liked it to be a bit thicker.

This chili was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. I'll have to remember to reduce the amount of chili powder next time.
