How to Make Fiesta Ketchup

Roughly chop 2-3 jalapeños (adjust to your spice preference).
In a food processor or blender, combine the chopped jalapeños, 1 cup of ketchup, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, 1 tablespoon of your favorite hot pepper sauce (like Tabasco), and 1 teaspoon of onion powder.
Pulse the mixture several times until everything is coarsely combined.
Scrape down the sides of the bowl and process until the mixture is smooth, but still slightly chunky for texture. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed, adding more hot sauce or lemon juice for desired heat and tang.
Transfer to a small bowl or jar. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld before serving. Enjoy!
