This is interesting...It has the texture of hummus but tastes like a smokey salsa. I think the chipotle overpowers most of the other flavors besides the lime and cilantro. I tried it with whole-grain tortilla chips but think it would be better in a Southwest type wrap or pita. Definately worth a try if you enjoy chipotle flavor. Made for the Zaar tag game.

My secret indulgence? Grocery Shopping.
I can literally spend hours roaming up and down the aisles of a Supermarket.
Sound crazy? Not if you're a self described "Foodie" like me.
I am fortunate enough to live in the city of Vancouver, British Columbia. The food community here is very rich in diversity, which has allowed me to sample tasty treats from all over the planet right here at home.
Aside from the Supermarket, there are tons of smaller Ethnic Grocery Stores, Butcher shops and Bakeries here in the city.
Vancouver is also home to the Granville Island Public Market - a food lovers haven! Imagine over 100 fresh produce, local seafood, speciatly meat and gourmet shops all in the same building... no wonder I love cooking so much!
