This is a snap shot of the square foot garden a few months ago. The tomatoes have all died from the heat and a nasty fungus, but the basil and jalepeno peppers are loving the hot weather. It is taking lots of water to keep the alive! If you look closely at the photo you can see the fungus and some leaf miner damage on the leaves of the tomato plants.

OK, so it wasn’t easy, but the end result was worth all of the trouble. I used a few of the chipotles in a salsa, ground a few for fish tacos, and shared some with family. You can easily rehydrate the chipotles for use in salsas and other recipes. Just add some almost boiling water to a bowl with the chipotles and in about 20 minutes the chipotles are nice and moist for use in recipes that call for fresh chipotles. You can also use a spice/coffee grinder to grind the chipotles. You can spice up recipes by using the chipotle powder anywhere chili powder is called for.  CLICK HERE FOR HOW TO MAKE CHIPOTLE PEPPERS
