From the moment I first tasted this type at Chipotle Grill I was hooked on this tangy salsa. It's not always easy for me to get to the restaurant and to be honest, they don't give you a very generous portion with your chips. I looked all over the internet to find a recipe for this one, but couldn't find it so I made my own. Adjust the hot peppers if more or less heat is desired.

Ingredients:

2 medium tomatoes, quartered

6 medium tomatillos (use 12 if they are very tiny)

1 small red onion, quartered (for a milder taste use a vidalia onion)

2 garlic cloves, pressed or minced

2 jalapeno peppers (seeded, roasted (or broiled)

2 limes, juice of

1/4-1/2 cup fresh cilantro

2 tablespoons ground cumin

1 pinch red pepper flakes (add more if more heat is desired)

1/2 teaspoon ground coriander

1 teaspoon tabasco chipotle pepper sauce (more for a hotter salsa)

sea salt (to personal taste)

fresh ground pepper (to personal taste)

Directions:

1. Combine the above ingredients into a food processor. Pulse until desired consistency is reached. I gave it about 4 pulses to reach a small sized chunk, perfect for scooping with chips.
