Super Tasty Salsa
"This is from a hand-out that was distributed by a local grower in the weekly Culver City, CA farmer's market. The chiptole gives it a great flavor. You will have a lot of chiptoles left over - just dump the rest of the can in a freezer bag and freeze for later (lay the bag out flat, so you can break of just one at a time once they're frozen). They're pretty hot, look out!
P.S. If you are looking for Pico de Gallo and not Salsa, omit the canned tomato and double the fresh tomato."

Very Good! Just the right amount of heat. I used dried herbs. Added juice of 1 lime. Super! -
i tried this recipe ut there was an error in the ingredient list so it did not come out as you intended. i used puree instead of canned tomatoes which made a big difference in the outcome. the chipoltes did give it a nice kick.

I am a teacher, and have been married to my high school sweetheart for almost 9 years. I have a niece who is 7, and a nephew who is 1. Also, I have 2 sweet kitties. Sinatra is a bit on the plump side, and Audrey is a petite dainty thing. They both are almost mirror images of each other.
