Cilantro Sauce

The key to upping the flavor

and nutrition of your meals without unnecessary calories is herbs. They’re packed with so much good stuff and can instantly take your meals from boring to delicious. I whipped this up the other day and can’t stop eating it on salmon. Keep reading for the recipe and how I used it!

Method:

  • Place all prepared ingredients into a blender and pulse until mixed/roughly chopped. You can play with the consistency making it a little chunky to rather smooth.

  • Store in an airtight container for 4-5 days or freeze half so you have it for another time.

Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup olive oil

  • 1 cup cilantro stems and leaves roughly chopped

  • 2 scallions roughly chopped

  • 1 garlic clove smashed

  • 1 tbsp white wine vinegar

  • salt and pepper

I’ve been serving this over salmon, with a side of roasted cauliflower, and mixed greens topped with a drizzle of olive oil and a squeeze of lemon. I’ve been saving the leftovers for lunch and adding a 1/2 of an avocado to bulk it up and make it a full meal a second time around.


I hope you enjoy this as much as I do! I feel like it could be good on eggs, other roasted veggies, etc. If you make this and love it, be sure to tag me on Instagram @AshleyPattenPilates and/or comment below!
