“My husband and I make this for Halloween and we make hot buttery rolls to go with it! It's so warm and yummy. It tastes like chicken enchiladas with green sauce but in a soup, chili form. I love this recipe. 🙂 So easy!” - Kayla

“My husband and I have argued for years which chili recipe is the best, his or mine. We have come up with a wonderful, scrumptious and amazingly tantalizing chili compromise! What is the secret? His favorite BBQ sauce and my original chili recipe made with a wonderful venison/ground beef mixture. It's HOT, it's SWEET, and it's oh, sooo yummy!” - Leah

“Now, I've found a recipe that gives me the hearty chili goodness without all of the guilt, fat, HEAT and calories. However, you can make this with hamburger/pork and beans and it will be great! For me, this is just how I like it. Serve with a crisp white or mellow red wine and a crusty loaf of French bread.” - Allison

“This quick and easy chili recipe is packed with flavor from the fresh vegetables and the typical chili seasonings. We loved the "something different" smoked paprika adds to the chili. Rotel gives it a nice kick and will be the perfect dinner to warm the family on a cold night. Using deli chicken makes this chili a cinch to throw together for an easy weeknight meal.” - Kitchen Crew

“The aroma while this slow cooker chicken simmers will make your mouth water. The Crock Pot cooks the chicken to perfection - super tender and juicy. All the spices pair well with the beans, tomatoes, corn, and other ingredients. This recipe is so easy to prepare it'll be on your menu when looking for healthier dinner options. Your family will definitely be coming back for seconds for this guilt-free chicken dinner.” - Kitchen Crew

“This taco inspired chili definitely has a delicious southwestern flair. Substituting ground beef for turkey, lightens up the meal and makes the chili a bit healthier (if you're looking for a healthy recipe). We loved the suggestion of serving this with tortilla chips; it makes it more like a cowboy salsa. Add a little cheese and sour cream (if you're not worried about calories) and you have an awesome easy meal!” - Kitchen Crew

“This is a cross between chicken tortilla soup and white bean chili and dished up in clay bowls that my dad used to serve up roasted oysters from the grill in. 🙂 The white beans give your palate a sense of chili, while the spices and crushed tortilla chips offer a sense of chicken tortilla soup.” - Jennifer
