Cilantro Awesome Sauce is an herb sauce similar to a basil pesto, but it doesn’t have any nuts or cheese in it. That means it is crazy delicious on meats, seafood and vegetables AND it is crazy food allergy friendly!
I often make a few different Awesome Sauces like Parsley, Mint and Basil to go along with our meals and add a bit of variety. Did I also mention that I am a condiment addict? I am. My husband would put me in a ten step program if such a thing existed. I love to add flavor where ever I can and these “Awesome Sauces” add a big hit of flavor!
