Looks good but it's missing something....

Gotta keep that orange going.

Here is my favorite recipe for green salsa. I got the base from a co-worker in Toastmasters when another member of that group presented a how-to talk on making Salsa Verde ("green salsa" in Spanish) from her family's Columbian recipe.

• 2 bunches of cilantro
• 2 bunches of parsley
• 1 bunch of green onions
• 12 large green olives, stuffed with jalapeno if you can find them
• chili peppers to taste
• olive oil
• lime juice
• salt

Wash and coarsely chop the cilantro, parsley, onions and peppers. Throw them and the olives into a food processor with sharp blades and run on high to chop finely. Slowly pour in olive oil until the chopped greens start to flow. Add lime juice and salt to taste.

I like to use 1-2 habaneros, 1 serrano and 1 jalapeno. The gal who shared the base recipe (less peppers and no olives or olive oil) with Toastmasters tasted my version and said I ruined it. Oh, well. I like it.
