About

Hello everyone!

This is our about us page! After a little bit, I've finally figured out how to do this type of page, so I moved the stuff from the post that I'd made earlier that was basically the "about us" to here, so now it's easy to access. If you're new, we'll introduce ourselves: the Three Chefpos! We three Chefpos work in this Chez Chefpo to bring you our tasty homemade recipes so you too can enjoy them. Without further ado, the Chefpos!

Li'l Chefpo

Li'l Chefpo's a bit of a beginner chef, sadly to say. But why am I using third person? I am Li'l Chefpo! While I also try to assist in the cooking like Chefpo Jr., I'm the behind-the-scenes producer/editor! You may know me as... Bloggerpo!

Dislikes: Doing the laundry and touching animals

Pretty amazing, right? So why do I sign off all the posts with "Chefpo"? Am I participating in identity theft? Nah, it just seems more professional to not have "Li'l Chefpo" at the bottom of every page. Plus, I wasn't the one who made them. But watch out! Whenever Chefpo Jr. or I make something, it'll be signed off with whoever made it. Also, Chefpo Jr. might be writing some posts in the future too!

That's all for today! Feel free to ask any questions about any of us, and maybe I'll do a Q&A in the future!

Habanero Salsa

Welcome back! Today, we have a fiery Habanero Salsa! Salsa is deceptively easy to make - just chop up a few ingredients and put it through a food processor - and if you do it yourself, you're able to get it to exactly the right consistency and flavor that you want. In this case, we were able to concoct a devilishly spicy salsa with a fresh habanero. Plus, this is so much fresher than the store-bought variety of salsa! Habanero Salsa Ingredients: 3 medium tomatoes (or Roma tomatoes), deseeded 1/4 small red onion 1 jalapeno 1 habanero Cilantro 1 tablespoon lime juice Pinch of salt Directions: Chop the tomatoes, onion, jalapeno, and habanero into rough chunks - not diced. Cut the cilantro so that there aren't any long stems. Add the chopped ingredients into a food processor along with the lime juice and salt. Pulse until the desired consistency is reached. This salsa is great by itself but it also is an amazing way to add an extra kick to guacamole or some Brisket Queso, and of ...
