Salsa Verde for Cilantro lovers
"Classic and easy salsa verde that can be thrown together quite quickly. Great for cooking as well as dipping. Don't mistake the ease of the recipe for lack of flavor, as real spice lovers will appreciate the simplicity in taste! I am VERY generous with cilantro and also like to keep many of the seeds. Hope you enjoy! Yield is approximate."

This is wonderful. A keeper for sure. Thanks for posting! I think I like this better than red salsas! -
Fantastic, fresh, easy, beautiful, and simple! this was a hit at my book group last night. I did triple the cilantro and add an extra lime. Thanks! This will be a staple during the summer BBQ season (which has already started here in Tucson).

<p>I am very interested in healthy living and put an emphasis on healthy cooking techniques, as well as try to balance good cooking with working 50 hour weeks. I also enjoy traveling, and have lived (and eaten well) in Spain, Mexico, and France. Mexican food is my favorite ethnic food, if authentic.</p>
