Easy Cilantro Garden Salsa

Being able to whip up a quick but delicious salsa is a skill that no one should be without. Always the perfect combination with tortilla chips, salsas are also useful for all sorts of dishes. For example, you can add it to stuffed peppers, tortilla soup, and Spanish rice.

The addition of Cilantro oil brings the added benefit of assisting with digestion and providing antioxidants.* Antioxidants help prevent free radical damage and are highly important to our cellular health. We’ve kept the fresh cilantro in this recipe for color and flavor, but adding in the highly concentrated essential oil gives you more benefits than the fresh herb by itself.
