I made a couple changes based on what I had on hand- used 2c frozen corn for one... and it was still just fantastic. I also used quite a bit more of everything because I needed a larger quantitiy, but didn't really measure (sorry)...I eliminated the oil but smooshed up 2 avocados and mixed them thoroughly with everything else to bind it all together & mellow out the VERY spicy peppers. AWESOME with "scoops" chips- will make again & again. THANKS!!

I substituted between 1 1/2 and 2 cups of Trader Joe's fire-roasted frozen corn kernels. It turned out great also you can use the sauce that chipotles come canned in. And play around with the amount a little goes a long way for heat!

I loved this recepie. I made it to go with the recipe for the Chipotle Carnitas for burritos, I used frozen corn but it still has a really "fresh" taste. Give it a try it's worth it.

Very good, almost the exact recipe. I believe they throw a couple of different peppers in there, but hey this tastes good.
CDKitchen Note: This isn't intended to be a copycat recipe from the Chipotle restaurant chain, it's a recipe that has chipotle in it! Glad you liked it though!
