Chimichurri is famous for going on steaks in Argentina, but equally as delicious is sopping it up with bread. This fresh, vibrant dip is also great for using up fresh herbs in your vegetable drawer, try mixing up different herb combinations for fun new flavors. And while delicious with meat, feel free to cut out the middleman and just dunk your bread straight in.
