    • 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
    • 1 teaspoon fresh cilantro, finely chopped

Directions

Combine all ingredients in a bowl; mix well. For a smooth texture, place all ingredients, unchopped, in a food processor or blender and process until smooth.

For a southwestern flair, add chili or cayenne pepper.
