Notes
Great serving it with some tortilla chips and take to vegan summer parties.
Try adding a lower quantity of chili powder if you are spice-averse.
Living with a Mexican in the house I have developed over time resistance to spicy foods but often I realize not everyone can handle our level of spiciness so adjust yours to your taste.
