Total time: 5 min
Ingredients: 2 cups of chopped cilantro leaves; 1 cup of water; 1/2 red onion, (chopped); 1/2 medium tomato, (chopped); 4 cloves of garlic; 1/2 red bell pepper, (chopped); 1/2 green bell pepper, (chopped); Juice of 1 lime

These herb cubes are great for so many different types of seasonings like in stews, beans, rices, or meats.

Seasoning your food with herbs and other homemade sauces helps us to avoid over-salting.

This recipe is pretty basic. All you’re going to need to do is throw your cilantro, water, red onion, tomato, garlic, red pepper, green pepper, and lime juice in a blender or food processor and blend up until it is a smooth consistency. You can put into a mason jar and use throughout the week or you can even freeze it and use for up to six months. We like to put it in an ice-cube tray and freeze into convenient little cubes that are easy to toss into your cooking.
