There are so many people who love all things spicy. The nice thing about making your own salsa is you can decide just how spicy you want to make it. Of, if someone in your family doesn’t like things as spicy, you can make a bowl of salsa to suit their tastebuds! With this great salsa, a touch of smoky chipotle pepper adds complexity to classic Southwestern salsa. It is quick, easy, and delicious.
