Colombian Aji Picante

My husband is a hot sauce and chile freak.  I just called my husband a freak.  Sorry babe!  I love you!  Mwah!  Anyway.....this is VERY hot sauce and not for the faint of heart.  Enjoy sparingly and with a large glass of milk nearby to put out the fire. 

Colombian Aji Picante (adapted from skinnytaste.com)

4 large green onions, coarsely chopped
1 tomato, quartered
1 to 2 small habanero peppers, stems removed
1/2 bunch cilantro, stems removed
1 lime, juiced
1 to 2 oz. water 
Salt and pepper to taste 

Combine all ingredients in the bowl of a food processor and pulse to combine.  

This will keep in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.

1 tablespoon contains about 3 calories (which isn't even worth mentioning, in my opinion!)
