This sauce is so awesome it deserves its own post! The sauce first got the Awesome Avocado Chimichurri Sauce name when I first made it to top steak tacos last summer. I made it again, and featured it in this Awesome Avocado Steak Tacos recipe. That was very popular on the web as well as in our home!
This awesome avocado sauce is also tasty with pork and served in a vegetarian bean taco. Tomorrow it tops off another tasty recipe…stay tuned! I figured it this ought to have its own post for folks looking for a tasty sauce, and for me to reference when I use it in other recipes. Give it a try, and let me know how you used it!
