For the Bean Salad I like the Chimichurri to be smooth , the original is much chunkier. For a chunkier version, blend the ingredients shorter and without the olive oil and add the oil only after blending
Store the Chimichurri in a preserving jar - don't use plastic it will smell forever like onion and garlic
You can store the sauce in the fridge up to one week, maybe even longer but I never tried
The Salad can be stored in the fridge for two days
The Chimichurri is vegan and the Chimichurri Bean Salad is an excellent source of iron and protein
The sauce is also great with meat especially beef or some Oregano Ginger Chicken and as a condiment on sandwiches. Fantastic!
