Peruvian Green Sauce

2018, celebrations, cooking

Inspired by:  https://www.skinnytaste.com/peruvian-green-sauce/

This dip was introduced to me as a side sauce for chicken during a Whole 30 compliant potluck at my house.  Great as a veggie dip, I used this for a crudite platter for my 40th birthday party.

  • 1 bunch of cilantro, roughly chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 TBSP canola oil
  • 4 tsp mustard
  • 2 TBSP red wine vinegar or lime
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • pepper

Place in and run until smooth.  Adjust seasoning to taste.
