Magic Spring Sauce

It's not a pesto, it's not a chimichurri, it's a magic sauce perfectly suited for spring.

Make it and put it on everything. Roasted veggies, toast, pasta, burritos or tacos, a veggie burger -- I mean, anything.

No need to be super precise in measuring...personalize it according to your flavor preferences.

This is a terrible picture.

It's better than it looks.

Magic Spring Sauce

1 bunch flat leaf parsley

1-2 bunch(es) cilantro

2-4 cloves garlic

1 avocado

Lime juice (lemon would do fine)

1/2 C (or so) oil (Thrive Algae Oil is my favorite for health reasons)

Optional 1/4-1/2 C nuts -- pistachios or walnuts would be great

Optional jalapeno or chili pepper flakes if you like some kick

Put everything in a food processor or blender and mix it up!

Mine was thicker, more spreadable and sauce-y.

It could also be a pesto-like dip by adding more oil after blending

or a thicker veggie dip with less oil

or a salad dressing by adding a little water.

You know I'm a fan of getting extra nutrients in super sly ways, so you could also play with adding a spoonful of miso or some white beans or a little nutritional yeast...and then adjust the oil/water for desired thickness.

The Magic Sauce has limitless potential!!

Let me know if you try it :)
