Healthy Chimichurri Sauce

  • August 12, 2020
Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Mindbodygreen recently published an article analyzing the difference between parsley and cilantro. Not only do these two herbs look the same, but their nutritional benefits beg you to start incorporating them into your diet. They can be consumed cooked or raw, from using them to punch up the flavor in your soups to throwing them into your blender for smoothies. These potent plants are chock full of nutrition, containing anti-inflammatory antioxidants that support blood sugar, brain health, and immunity.

My favorite way to consume them kills two birds with one stone: Chimichurri Sauce! Find the flavorful recipe below.

Chimichurri Sauce

Herbs and spices are blended together to yield this delicious sauce. The perfect condiment for lean proteins or drizzle as a dressing.
