Creamy Chipolte Dip

CREAMY CHIPOLTE DIP

Makes about 1 cup

8 ounces Neufch�tel cheese, softened 1/4 cup chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, roughly chopped (Note: for a spicier dip, use more peppers; for a less spicy dip, use more sauce.) 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped 1 thick green onion or two thin ones, chopped

In a food processor, combine the cheese with the peppers and adobo sauce until thoroughly combined. This will probably require scraping down the food processor bowl sides a few times. Pulse in the cilantro and green onion until combined. Serve with tortilla chips.
