Green salsa verde is a quick and tasty dip that acts as a liver detoxifier. It is a recipe I make every week and store in my fridge so when I come home from work and my blood sugar has dropped, this dip is what I reach for. It is best served with veggie sticks or crackers and stores well in the refrigerator for up to 10 days. It is so good for your liver and includes good quality fresh herbs that leave your mouth, mind, and body feeling alive and nourished.
