Wow! This salsa came out even better than I expected. I made very few changes (used fresh peaches instead of canned, but ground ginger instead of fresh - just what I had on hand). The flavors mixed very well together, and I can't imagine substituting any of them (except trying other fruits). I did add more chipotles, but I'm guessing mine were not as spicy as normal because I'm VERY wimpy about spice - would have been fine as directed, however. I marinated some chicken with the salsa for about three hours, then baked it all for 40 minutes at 350. Came out PERFECT. Tasted good on its own as well - I'll be making this for the next cookout I attend. One thing though - prep time is definitely more than 10 minutes to chop and mince all those ingredients.

Would have been five stars if there was even a meager attempt at making this recipe healthy... Pros: REALLY easy to make; versatile; difficult to mess up. Cons: Check out the nutritional values - I think we can all figure out where the fatty culprit is in this recipe. I ditched the Bob Evans sausage roll and used chorizo instead. Chicken and turkey sausage means WAY less fat and fewer calories - and it made the soup nice and spicy as well! Everything else was pretty much by the book, although I needed to add way more than 14.5 oz of beef broth to make it soupy and not stewy. This will definitely be a staple of mine, although I will be tinkering with the recipe to make it healthier (more fresh veggies instead of canned, beef broth substitutes to cut out some sodium - 77%??? Blech!). As is, though (minus the gross sausage roll), it's an easy soup to have on hand for emergency "oh no! I have nothing to cook with!" evenings.

This soup was just as easy and delicious as everybody else said.
