    Not bad, but I like my chili spicy. I added jalapeños and it was way better!

    Delicious! Didn’t have vegetable broth, so used chicken broth. Still turned out great!

    I dunno about sweet potatoes in chili. They are too sweet for me. I skipped them and it was fine.

    I made it but forgot the beans 🤦‍♂️. Still tasted good, but I think beans are important.

    This was okay, I guess. But honestly just tastes like soup to me. Expected chili flavor.

    Eh, it was fine. Not really my thing. I prefer regular chili with meat.
