CINNAMON-CHIPOTLE SALSA


A slightly different twist on salsa. I use chipotles that come in adobe sauce, and this gives it a good amount of “heat.” Use less or more chipotle depending on your taste.

1 large or 2 small tomatoes
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 clove garlic
1/2 cup cilantro, de-stemmed
1 chipotle pepper
1 tablespoon adobe sauce
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
salt/black pepper

Coarsely chop the first three ingredients and de-stem the cilantro. Put everything in a food processor along with a few dashes each of salt and black pepper. Pulse until finely chopped, but not totally pureed. Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour.
