Tips
Make it Less Spicy - Reduce the amount or if using fresh jalapeños, remove the membranes and seeds of the jalapeños to make it a bit less spicy. The membrane is the hottest part of the pepper. To remove it, cut the top off of the jalapeño, slice it in half longways and cut or scoop it out.

To Store - Store in an airtight container up to one week refrigerated. Warm in microwave or oven to serve.
