Ultimate Chipotle Salsa

This post may contain affiliate links. See full disclosure here.

I crave salsa, every day, all the time, and I want it on everything.  Well, maybe not everything.  But, it is one of my daily addictions.  What’s not to love about it.  It is mainly veggies, and thus is lower in calories. And, it compliments a large variety of foods, like chips, tacos, fish, quesadillas, etc.   I am sure there are many more foods this salsa would make as a yummy topping or dipping sauce.  This recipe is so easy, and only takes five ingredients! You can get the Chipotle Chilies at the end of this post.

Mix Up the Goods

First prepare your ingredients.  Chop up your red onion, and cilantro.  Add a can of diced stewed tomatoes or two, depending on the heat you prefer, and stir this mixture together.  Slowly add chopped chipotles.  Key word, Slowly.  Some chipotles appear to be hotter than others, and you can always add more heat. Conversely, you can add more tomatoes if you need to cool it down.

Once you have settled on the appropriate heat, squeeze half a lime over the mixture and stir.  Set the salsa aside for about 15 minutes for the flavors to fully combine. When you are ready, add a side of chips and serve it to your guests!

Enjoy!
