Jalapeno Soup

Ok, not really soup, more like salsa, but seriously this is so succulent and sweet you could probably eat the entire batch with a soup spoon if you love jalapenos as much as I do!

Jalapeno Soup
4 fresh Jalapeno Peppers
1 small sweet yellow onion
Juice of two Limes
Salt and Pepper
1/2 cup Canola Oil

Preheat oven to 375 Degrees F.  Prepare and clean Jalapenos by chopping off stems, slice lengthwise and remove seeds and ribs.  Chop onion into big slices.  Toss peppers and onions in a large baking dish and coat lightly with about a teaspoon of oil, salt and pepper. Roast for about 20 minutes or until onions begin to brown and peppers blister slightly.  Remove and allow to cool slightly.  Place mixture in food processor along with juice of two limes.  Blend until smooth.  Then, while food processor is in on position, drizzle remaining oil into mixture.  Continue to puree until smooth, scraping down sides as needed.  Taste test for seasoning level.  Serve alongside your favorite fresh veggies and tortilla chips for dipping.  Yum!
