*removing the seeds & membrane from the jalapeño will remove the majority of the heat. However you can always omit them.

** Got leftover chipotle peppers? Just freeze them to use for next time. I usually freeze them individually in snack bags – often times you use just one pepper in a recipe and that way you’re not wasting any!
