How to Prepare Carrot Top Salsa [Vegan]

  1. Add all of the ingredients to a medium bowl and stir to combine. (Use more or less oil as desired, to make a chunkier or a thinner sauce.)

  3. Decant the salsa into a jar and refrigerate. The oil may congeal in the cold temperature, but this will not affect the flavor. Bring the salsa to room temperature before serving.
