If I had followed the recipe exactly, this probably would have been great. I used two cans of chopped green chiles and no jalepenos (just what I had on hand). It was a little bland because of that, but it actually improved over time…the leftovers were pretty good.

I made this recipe this past weekend and it was a hit. The only thing I did different was leave out the jalapenos but only b/c my small children were eating it. It was a HIT! It is not that often that I take the time out to review a recipe, but because this was so very good I knew the poster would appreciate the feedback. If you are viewing this recipe and are not sure- do not hesitate. It was awesome!

I made this two nights ago. I modified it slightly, by adding some corn I had left over from the summer. Sweet corn that was prepared with a little sugar. The slightly sweetness was neat. I brought some to work for friends, and got the comment that it was the “best chili ever tasted”. Thanks for sharing this great recipe!

Salsa verde is my favorite, wondering if this tastes like that??

This was really good but I would’ve liked it thicker and maybe a bit creamier but I suppose this is a healthier option than the other recipe I have that calls for sour cream and HEAVY WHIPPING CREAM. This will definitely be “healthy” alternative chili verde recipe. Thanks!

I made this last week–used a rotisserie chicken that I skinned and deboned, Rotel undrained instead of just the green chile’s and half of a left over can of black beans in addition to the white beans. Tasted great, no leftovers!

It was a hit for us! My hubby loved it and told me to definitely make this one again. My kids (7,6,2) liked it as well. I did leave out the hot sauce and jalapenos because it would have been too hot for the kiddos; however, my husband and I did add them to our bowls.

the hubs & I really liked this one, but the kids were only lukewarm about it. I left out the jalapenos on their account, and served it with some freshly shredded monterey jack cheese. I poached my chicken breasts with cumin & chili powder, and used the poaching liquid as part of my chicken stock. I needed an additional cup of broth, as I apparently bought monster-sized chicken breasts–yikes!
