This was delicious. I followed the recipe and did add one can of kidney beans. I cooked the chili a little longer to get the squash tender. Everyone loved this!
I took this to the church chili cook off. I didn't win, but I did come home with an empty pot. I'll take that as win! It's really delicious! I used chipotle chili powder because I was out of normal chili powder and it still turned out great, a little smokey and very tasty.
We have made this recipe so many times! Even in the summer, it is a go to!
So hearty, nutritious, and delicious. Hits the spot!
My boyfriend and I made this chili last week and WOW was it amazing! It was so good I am making it for my parents this week. We followed the recipe exactly but just added some red pepper flakes in because we like our chili more spicy. We did this in the instapot. If anything the peppers and squash might have been a bit over done but still amazing! Next time I might bring it down to 15 minutes and see how that turns out. And we loved the addition of the cinnamon! Such a nice fall flavor :) The best part is it made quite a bit so we froze it and will reheat it up in the toaster oven. Excited to try more of Kelly's recipes! I have been a long time follower.
First recipe I've tried from this site - followed recipe to the T, really tasty, we loved it - but we both love Bison so there was no surprise there. My husband and I both commented that it could have used maybe twice the garlic for the flavor to come through, but we're both huge garlic fanatics so take it with a grain of salt. The butternut squash was surprisingly well complimented with the whole soup. Can't wait to eat this for lunch this week!
I wasn’t sure at first how this was going to taste with butternut squash or if my kids would eat it but they did and LOVED it. To make it easier I bought the pre cut squash at the store the first time and then the second time I used frozen squash. The consistency was different but it was still flavorful. I love being able to sneak in other veggies for my kids. And of course the bison is delicious! I will be making this regularly this winter 😋
This was one of the first ones I tried! I subbed the butternut squash for sweet potatoes since I had them on hand and it didn't lose it's charm. I also added oakra becasue they were on sale and honesly I think that was a game changer for me. YUM. Felt intimidated by the bison but I shouldnt have, its easy. A wonderful choice for cold weather.
Great chili recipe! I loved how customizable it is and thought the butternut squash was a great addition and complements the bison perfectly. Definitely recommend giving this a try!
Can’t wait to try it
