Why I Love This Recipe

FEATURING: Cilantro and garlic scapes (or garlic).

This easy cilantro lime dressing is great as a topping for salads, tacos, taco bowls and roasted veggies (oven or BBQ). To make it creamy, add 1/2 avocado or yogurt of your choice to the base recipe!

You can even use as a dip (if so, try making handmade tortilla chips: https://www.simplyrecipes.com/recipes/how_to_make_homemade_tortilla_chips/)
