We really enjoyed this chili. Having a DH who is pre-diabtes, this fit right in with his calorie and carb allowance. I think next time I will add an extra chipolte pepper as we like spicy or maybe not scrape all the seeds out. We will be making this again. Thanks for posting.

Very nice not-too-hot chili. I liked that this recipe uses carrots. The flavor really develops nicely after the simmering. This would be nice to keep in a crockpot for fall/winter gatherings. Thanx for posting.

DH just loved this . . . not to spicy, just right. I do have to confess however that I made a few changes. I added diced poblano pepper and about one teaspoon of ancho chili powder; left out the carrots. Also substituted dark beer for the water. To thicken the chili, I pureed a half can of the kidney beans before adding. Next time think a little diced cilantro would be a nice addition. Thanks Redsie for sharing a great recipe!

We really liked this, but felt it didn't qualify to be called Chili. I made exactly as directed up to the point of adding the beans, and when I tasted it, it just did not give me that chili flavor I wanted. To this point is what this review is based on. Saying that, for our taste preferences, I added a lot more spices including more oregano, some basil, a bay leaf, garlic powder and a lot of chili powder. Loved the black beans used in the recipe. I don't know if the spices I added did anything to make this a non-light version, but it sure did please my DH. Liked the smokey flavor the chipotle chile gave this as well as the adobo sauce. Didn't find that the carrots did much for the overall dish, except to add additional veggies to my diet. Good job Redsie.Thanks for sharing.

This is a really good chili that received rave reviews from all family members! Nice and colorful and the chipolte adds a nice bit of smoky spiciness. I added a bit of corn to the mix, as well as a bit more cumin and some chili powder. It was great topped off with some sour cream. Thanks for posting!
