I just saw this recipe fixed on a local tv show. It caught my attention because it used sweet potatoes.
Then I discovered what a chipotle pepper is.
Do you know?*

I'm going to buy these ingredients and let you know how it turns out. I don't have a food processor, so mine will be VERY chunky.
* It's a smoked jalapeno pepper.
