Creamy Cilantro Lime Sauce

This cilantro lime sauce is the perfect drizzle for tacos, although I’ve been known to pour it generously on salads, drizzle over grilled chicken breasts, and more.

It’s the perfect combination of creamy and tangy with the freshness you expect from freshly chopped cilantro.
