Speedy Weeknight Chili image

Super-easy and great-tasting, this chili makes a big batch of great party fare. I use my food processor to chop up the veggies and cut down on prep time. It's also very tasty and lower in fat when made with ground turkey breast. -Cynthia Hudson, Greenville, South Carolina.

I love the addition of the sweet potatoes to this chili. They add a touch of sweetness and creaminess that really takes the dish to the next level.

This chili is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I added a cup of chopped carrots and a cup of chopped celery, and it was delicious.

I made a few substitutions to the recipe (used ground turkey instead of beef, and added some chopped zucchini), and it still turned out delicious.
