Frijoles Adobados

Chipotle chiles in adobo ~ Smoked jalapenos are pickled in tomato puree, vinegar, garlic, bay leaves, paprika, salt, onions and oregano. 

If heat is an issue, use only the sauce for a tamer kick.  Love heat?  Add more chipotles.  Freeze leftover chiles in a plastic bag. When a recipe calls for chipotles slice off as needed. Puree chipotles with mayo for a colorful sandwich spread or add to your potato salad for a Mexican twist.  Enjoy!
