Salsa Verde
Whipping up a batch of fresh salsa has never been easier. We think this take on salsa verde is just as good — if not better — than the store-bought version. Bright, herby, and piquant, it's the perfect complement to tacos, chips, meats, and more.
All of Anyday’s recipes are tested (and retested!) in many different microwaves and home kitchens to make sure they work — and work well.
