If you haven’t noticed the trend around TSV, chimichurri dressing is kind of everything right now. It just embodies fresh, tangy summer flavors – plus it tastes good on just about everything.

I like whipping up a batch of my chimichurri recipe (which you can get here) and then use it on everything I make. Like this Serrano Pepper Avocado Toast and this Grilled Corn Summer Salad.

Sometimes you just need a bowl of greens topped with juicy tomatoes, creamy avocado, tangy red onion and, of course, freshly grilled corn.
