Staples in my kitchen are so important especially with two littles running around. I always like to have dips, spreads and salsas in my fridge waiting for me to top on my favorite dishes throughout the week.


One of my favorites that I always have available for me to grab is my Very GREEN salsa verde. It’s a flavor booster on all counts! I love to top it on my tacos, dip crackers in it as a mid day snack and I even love to mix it into my scrambled eggs during busy mornings. It brings a brightness to my dishes that honestly I can’t live without!


I hope you give this easy and delicious recipe a try and add it to your list of stapled ingredients in your kitchen!
