CHIPOTLE-CHERRY SALSA
This salsa comes from "How to Cook Everything Vegetarian" by Mark Bittman -- one of my favorite cookbooks. It's pretty fast to make -- the only time-consuming part is pitting the cherries, and if you have a cherry pitter you could probably cut the time in half. I have had this with blackened tofu and also with "fake chicken" Quorn cutlets, and my husband wants to try it with chicken and/or fish. It's not too sweet, and not overly spicy when made as written (I doubled the amount of chipotle chilies and it wasn't very spicy for a heat freak like me!)

Steps:
- Put all the ingredients in a medium bowl and stir to combine. (You can do the chopping in a food processor -- you can pulse it to get a nice part smooth/part chunky texture if that's how you like it.).
- Let sit for 5 minutes, then taste and adjust the seasoning, adding more chile, lime, or salt as needed.
- Serve at room temperature or cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days.
