Magic Green Sauce
As a huge fan of power bowls, knowing the basis of this sauce will take your food to the next level. This sauce is creamy, citrus-y, and most definitely, the perfect addition to any power bowl.
The components to remember are:
- Nut: Cashews, Walnuts
- Herb: Parsley, Cilantro
- Citrus: Lemon, Lime
Its just that easy! The best part is, that the sauce will stay that nice bright green for up to a week. Bonus tip is that it even freezes well.
