1 tablespoon fresh cilantro leaves, finely chopped

3 tablespoons fresh-squeezed organic lemon juice

1/2 tsp. (or to taste) Premier Pink Salt

Pinch (or more) of cayenne pepper (non-irradiated)

Directions:

until they form a chunky puree. Add the rest of the ingredients and stir together. Let stand for a few minutes to allow the flavors to blend together.

remove the seeds from the jalapeno pepper or omit the cayenne pepper.
