8 servings
- 1 cup fresh cilantro leaves and tender stems, loosely packed
- 3 tbsp fresh lime juice (from about 2 limes)
- 1 clove garlic, roughly chopped
- 1 jalapeño, seeds removed, roughly chopped
Ingredient noteThe Mold Detox diet limits chili peppers because they can pick up mold once they are dried and stored, but the peppers on this line are used fresh, not dried, so they are likely tolerated by many. If you prefer to always avoid fresh chili peppers, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tbsp water
- ½ tsp ground cumin
- ¼ tsp salt, or to taste
- ¼ tsp black pepper, or to taste
Ingredient noteDried black pepper can sometimes contain mold toxins, but the small amount in this recipe—about a pinch per serving—is likely tolerated by many. When possible, use a recently purchased organic spice and store it tightly closed in a cool, dry place. If you prefer to always avoid black pepper, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- ½ ripe avocado, pitted and scooped (optional)
