Notes
This is a spicy soup so if you want to reduce the spice only use half the can of chipotles in adobo
When using a blending with warm liquids, you must hold the blender lid down with a kitchen towel to prevent the lid from popping up violently. Be careful and be sure the let soup cool before blending.
