I love all things spicy, but the nice thing about making your own salsa is you can decide just how spicy you like to make it! With this great salsa, a touch of smoky chipotle pepper adds complexity to classic Southwestern salsa. Quick, easy and delicious.

- 1/4 teaspoon minced canned chipotle pepper (how to save leftover chipotle peppers)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon red wine vinegar

Ive never bothered to make my own salsa before (always been lazy and bought it in a jar) but this looks so nice I might just be tempted to give it a try. I can add a few jalapenos especially for me too as I like it a little bit hotter than the usual salsa.
