This was good, I added zucchini and used white kidney beans. Also added a splash of hot sauce and served cheese on top instead of mixing it in. Very easy, will definitely make it again

I am surprised seeing all the wonderful reviews. I made this yesterday and my husband and I did not seem to enjoy it. Maybe we had our hopes set to high? It seemed to take a long time to get the carrots soft, which made the both disappear. It did not taste like chili at all. It actually tasted more like a spaghetti sauce or something. It was very bland. I will stick to regular old chili.

Quick and easy. I substituted the kidney beans with kidney beans in the chili sauce for some more flavor.

This was a very easy, quick recipe to make. I added 1 zucchini to the mix to add a little something. Topping it with sour cream is a great suggestion as well. Excellent recipe!!

I loved this receipe. It was super easy and full of flavor. I added a can of black beans also to mix it up a little. I also used Kraft sharp cheddar instead of the other cheese because that's what was in my fridge. It worked great!
