Ingredients:


1 medium yellow bell pepper

1 medium red bell pepper

4 medium roma tomatoes

6 medium tomatillos -- husks removed

4 cloves garlic

1 small white onion -- peeled and

2 medium jalapenos -- stems removed

1 cup loose packed chopped cilantro

1/4 cup tomato juice

2 teaspoons coarse salt

2 teaspoons maple syrup -- (real maple)

4 teaspoons fresh lime juice

2 medium avocados peeled, seeded and diced

1 pound cooked shrimp -- peeled and

Preparation / Directions:


Remove stems from Bell peppers. Split peppers in half, lengthwise and lightly oil the skin. In an oven-proof pan, arrange peppers (skin-side up), tomatoes, tomatillos, garlic, onion and Jalapenos. Broil under high heat 10 to 15 minutes, or until skins of the peppers are charred and the tomatoes and tomatillos are blistered and soft. Allow vegetables to cool. Peel skin from peppers. In a food processor, combine broiled vegetables (including any liquid from the pan) with cilantro, tomato juice, salt, maple syrup and lime juice; blend to yield a coarse puree. Just before serving, add avocado and shrimp and mix well. Serve with warm fried tortilla chips.
