Bring on the green! I have a terrific idea to get you in the mood for St. Patty’s Day. It’s not what you’re thinking and a little out of the box. It’s not beer or whiskey, but something even more delicious. It’s…chimichurri!

I grew up in Houston and my family would enjoy Sunday lunch together every week. Houston is a town full of diverse and delicious restaurants, so we had a lot of choices. One of the top ones was a South American restaurant called Churrascos. Churrasco is a Portuguese and Spanish term referring to beef or grilled meat. It was here that I first tried chimichurri and fell for its bright, garlicky flavor that complemented the beef perfectly. There are many variations of chimichurri, but it always includes parsley and garlic. This particular recipe is AIP (auto-immune protocol) Friendly. This sauce is easy to make, a beautiful green color, and full of antioxidants.
