Ingredients

    1 cup onions, chopped
    1 jalapeno pepper, chopped (seeds and inner ribs removed first) - optional

Saute the onions, (and pepper if using) in the coconut oil over medium heat until the onions are translucent. Then add the remaining ingredients and simmer for about 20 minutes over low heat. Then pour it all into a blender and blend until smooth. Return to the pot and keep warm until the meat is ready.
