Cucumber Salsa

I made this last week for a Just Jewelry party that I had. My party was a total flop and probably the worst "selling" party that I've ever had. But on the positive side, more salsa for me! This is cool, refreshing and has just enough spice to it.

Chipotle Salsa

Pin It
This is the salsa that I made up about a year or so ago. Ben says it's so good he could drink it straight! You can adjust the spiciness by adding or taking away from the chipotle peppers. You can also split the peppers and scrape out the seeds to take some of the heat away which is what I do.

CHIPOTLE SALSA

2 cans plain diced tomatoes, undrained (with or without salt)
1 whole bunch cilantro, stems removed
3 cloves garlic
2 stalks green onions/scallions, trimmed
2 whole chipotle pepers in adobo sauce, seeded
1/2 tsp kosher salt, or to taste

Put all ingredients in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. That's it!
